    2005 CRF150F soft clutch lever. Normal?

    by jhawk14200 » Wed Mar 10, 2010 9:23 am

    I just recently picked up a pretty nice used 2005 crf150f. I replaced a couple of worn parts - grips, tires, replaced fork boots with seal savers because one was ripped. I also replaced the clutch lever because it was tweaked. It seems to work properly but it pulls back so easy a two year old could do it. Should I worry about it? Is it a sign of a worn clutch or clutch springs? I think I have it adjusted right, as it felt the same way before I swapped the lever out. And I took it for a spin and it seems to be working fine. Any insight would be appreciated.

    the clutch on mine pulls back fairly easy. it shouldn't just "fall" back though. but it doesn't pull back like a big motocross bike or anything.

    It doesnt just fall back, but is very soft even compared to our crf80f and crf100f. The wife kinda likes it like that but I just wondered if it were normal for the crf150's.

    Just pulled on the clutch levers of our 80, 150 and 230. All of them felt about the same.
