I'm still awaiting parts ordered over two weeks ago. Apparently, clutch fibers and plates are not presently available in the U.S. I ordered the clutch kit, this kit includes all friction plates and also includes alternate clutch plates that may be required to achieve the correct assembled clutch pack width. It also includes the clutch cover gasket. Ed "Do not let this bad example influence you, follow only what is good" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please do update once everything is install Cant wait to see the end result and I will probably do that same mod as well.. Yes, it is installed, pretty straight forward. I took a lot of pictures and will be posting a detailed write up sometime this week. I have not had a chance to ride it yet, So far the initial observations are lighter clutch pull at the lever and it seems to go into gear from neutral with much less (almost no) clunk like the stock clutch.

M. Hausknecht Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 The motor, called a a CP 2 by Yamaha, hasn't changed since its introduction. Hard engine parts are interchangeable across all model years of the FZ/MT 07 and the new R7. Ed, I ordered from Motosport as well. They've pissed me off less than a bunch of other options for OEM parts, and since I order enough (minimum of $79 for me) each time, free shipping. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M. Hausknecht Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Yesterday I laid out the parts to convert a stock 07 clutch to an R7 slipper clutch. All I'm missing is a new clutch pack (fibers and plates), which is now back-ordered until at least March 18. The parts schematic seems clear enough that assembly should be straight-forward. The only info I'm missing is the torque to put on the three spring bolts; Ed did you find an R7 torque figure or just use the torque from the stock clutch (spring bolts appear to be the same so I'd use the same torque absent other info). Only three springs; no wonder the clutch action is so light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the torque setting for the three clutch spring bolts, was the question. In other words, snug but use a small wrench if not using a torque wrench.

Premium Member Evill_Ed Posted February 25, 2022 Author Premium Member Share Posted February 25, 2022 Here are my pictures and notes for the installation of the R7 Slipper Clutch. PART ONE - REMOVAL Drain the oil and coolant. Then remove the water pump. I tied mine to the header pipes with a small bungee to keep it out of my way. Notes: Be careful with the pump o-ring. Mine was securely in place so I just left it alone. Also my coolant has only 3K miles, so I drained it into a clean container to reuse it. Remove the Clutch Cover Note that the last friction plate is offset one notch from the rest of the stack. The R7 Slipper will also have the last friction plate offset like this. Pressure Plate, springs and clutch plates removed. lift the locking dimple on the nut for the clutch boss. Remove the boss nut, I used an impact gun. Otherwise you need a clutch holding tool, or place the trans in 6th gear and hold down on the rear brake to loosen the nut. Remove beveled washer, note the side that has OUT stamped on it, faces you. Remove second washer and then the clutch boss. Make sure to remove the spacer from the rear of the clutch boss, it will most likely stick to the back of the clutch boss when removed.

Premium Member Popular Post Evill_Ed Posted February 25, 2022 Author Premium Member Popular Post Share Posted February 25, 2022 Here are my pictures and notes for the installation of the R7 Slipper Clutch. PART TWO - Installation Stock FZ / MT Clutch Boss and Pressure plate on Top / R7 Slipper on Bottom Note Ramps and oval shaped holes on Boss and Plate, this is how they disengage to provide slip Install rear spacer first, then R7 Clutch Boss and front spacer Then Beveled Washer with the word OUT facing you and a new Boss Nut. Torque Boss Nut to 70-ft.lbs and stake the lock tab. Place the transmission in 6th gear and hold the rear brake to torque the Boss Nut. Install Clutch Damper Spring Seat Then install the Clutch Damper Spring. Note the bevel faces outward. Then begin installing the friction and clutch plates in order. Assemble dry and then measure the stack height. Range is 32.7 mm to 33.5 mm. My first assembly came out towards the lower end. I realized that I used 2 of the thinner clutch plates. (see chart below) The clutch kit come with 5 standard plates 2.0mm, (2) thinner plates 1.6mm and (2) heavier plates 2.3mm. I reassembled with 5 standard 2.0mm plate and was at 33.5mm exactly. I then oiled the friction and clutch plates and installed with the R7 pressure plate. Torque Clutch Spring Bolts to 7.4-ft.lbs. Note offset on last friction plate. Clean the mating surfaces and put a new gasket on the clutch cover and reinstall. I found it lined up easy, slide the cover down and wiggle the water pump impeller to make sure it lock onto the drive shaft. Don't sweat the clutch arm alignment if it is off. Mine was slightly off, I just removed the C Clip and rotated the arm a few degrees until the marks lined up and reinstalled the C Clip. Torque clutch cover bolts to 8.9-ft.lbs Refill coolant. Install a new oil filter and oil. Install the clutch cable on the cover, adjust and tighten lock nuts. Then fine adjust at clutch lever to achieve 10mm free play. I think that's pretty much it. Feel free to ask any questions. Ed 9 2 "Do not let this bad example influence you, follow only what is good" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the Clutch Boss Nut, it is staked after installation to lock it in place. Best practice is to use a new one. I forget where I purchased the service manual, but you can get it from here YAMAHA MANUAL STORE Ed 2 "Do not let this bad example influence you, follow only what is good" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Einstein57 Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 I was looking up the part numbers and I just wanted to clarify something before I enter my order. you show plate clutch 2 (5VY-16325-00-00 ) which appears to be an individual plate. Shouldn’t it be the friction plate kit BEB-W001M-00-00 with the full set of plates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you ever had a slipper clutch of any kind in one of these engines? Curious to see how R7 version performs compared to an aftermarket. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
