Raptor 350 clutch release parts

dave76 · Apr 12, 2008

Put the Raptor350 clutch parts on today, all I can say is WOW, even with mickeys 446 super duty springs, the clutch pulls like butter. I can pull it with one finger, before I needed all four. This is the best $30 I ever spent on this quad.

We will sticky this as this is one of the best and cheapest mods for a Warrior you can do. Thanks to Jason for being the guinea pig for trying it.

Parts were bought from http://www.yamahasportsplaza.com/pages/parts/viewbrands/default.aspx

5YT-16340-00-00 PUSH LEVER ASSY $9.07

90508-16022-00 SPRING, TORSION $0.95

5YT-15441-10-00 HOLDER, CLUTCH CABLE $6.41

95817-08045-00 BOLT, FLANGE (95802-08045-00) $0.95

5YT-26335-10-00 CABLE, CLUTCH $10.83

Total should be $28.21 then add shipping.

Here is were the new cable holder bracket mounts to
I still have to remove the old cable mount.

Nice! Looks like I'll have another retrofit on my hands soon.

Is there any custom work involved?

Nope just remove the old cable, cable holder, and release arm and spring. Install the new cable holder on top of the engine were the hole is through the boss with the one screw, thread the new cable down on the other side of the engine, slip the end in the cable holder, install your new release arm and spring, hook it up to the new cable and adjust it.

I'll go take a few pics and postem up.

Nice, is the raptor cable required though? Will it work with the warrior cable or is it too short?

Totally different setup, Rappy cable is definitly needed.

OK, gonna see if I can find anything on CDB Motorsports, they always have nice prices on used stuff.

USED???, comon dude it's less then $30 brand new, I don't recommend getting a used cable.

I'm not talking about the cable, I was mainly looking for the attaching system. I did find the cable holder for $5, but that's it. So I'll probably end up getting everything from my local dealer to avoid the hassle and shipping prices from ordering it form the U.S, maybe a cable from ebay.

So you can still use the stock Warrior clutch lever, correct?

I used a yfz450 clutch lever and perch and love the difference it makes on its own.

Good move you will not be disappointed with this simple mod, your clutch will be easier to pull then any new quad made, including the hydrualic magura.

i bought the asv clutch lever and a streamline clutch cable... all together it was about $100 from motosport and got it in 2 days free shipping!!

blubberbutt · Aug 12, 2008

Please oh please tell me what the hell I'm doing wrong here!! I feel like my clutch cable is like a foot too long .. I can't get the slack out of it!!

xkingraptor350x · Aug 12, 2008

have you recently taken the the clutch cover off?? it could be the part that sticks out of your case and might have the teeth misaligned to much one way?

The cable looks to be routed wrong but it will work that way. I would take the clutch lever off of the case and postion it so you get all the free play out of the clutch assembly and then re install the cable.

No sir, that cover has never been of to the best of my knowledge & it definitely hasn't come off recently.

Yes I tried routing it 2 different ways & when I took this pic it (clutch cable) was laying on the engine. So when you say the "clutch lever off the case" are you referring to the "push lever assembly"? If so I did that as well .. I've adjusted everything I know to adjust. I finally got too pissed off about it & when back to the factory setup for now.

Everything looks to be mounted right.
