hi all i had a bad crash replaced everything that was bad. felt like trans was slipping like the clutch wasn't disengaging all the way so i got the ebr secondary clutch actuator. had some trans noise and after i bled the clutch a million times it went away. then my belt broke. got a new one still slipping at high rpm's. i think the clutch is fine and maybe its the tensioner? the belt is pretty tight but i think it should b tighter. i replaced the rear belt sprocket it was damaged. HELP so sick of it not working! | ||

Any wear on the belt teeth? If they are not tore up its not slipping. | ||
| Tomseliga |
ya i think it got tore up from the old sprocket but now that i have a new one on it should b good but still feels like slipping so after reading a bunch of other posts im going to take the spring out of the ebr actuator and undo the nut 3/4 turn see if that stops it from slipping | ||
| Tomseliga |
it only slips when it i really get on it like all the way it must b the clutch issue | ||
| Tomseliga |
ok so i took the spring out still slipping uuuug! i noticed when i had the puck off and bleeding the clutch the piston doesnt return all the way i can push it with my thumb and it goes in a tiny bit is that normal if not what could b causing it? also there is a small gap between the cylinder and the sleeve on the outside like the one in the inside where the clip goes is that normal maybe that is the problem? help!! i want to ride | ||

oh crap just read that a cr swing arm is 5 mm shorter than a r i must have bought an r when my other one was damaged in the crash. i got it on ebay used. that is y its slipping anyone? | ||
| Tomseliga |
so i dont have 500 for a new swing arm and there rnt any on ebay can i get a bigger tensioner or smaller belt uggg! | ||

American Sportbike lists CR belts. Probably other sponsors too. eBay seems like a crap shoot for a belt. I think I'd just try and get a new one if you think that is the issue. | ||

Toms. Let me see if I understand you: you crashed, replaced parts with parts from eBay, but didn't know that drive parts were different between r and cr, you have a cr but bought a r swing arm(?). I also believe that The r and cr sprockets are different also(haven't had a chance to check my parts manual) You probably should get a parts manual. Toms I would get with a dealer and fix your bike correctly. | ||

lol i have a manual yes i got an r swing arm i was told they were the same. but i read on here that the cr is 5mm shorter. which makes sense because my belt is just a tiny bit loose. the sprokets are diff i got the rite one. i dont have money to get bike fixed at a dealer. i do all my own work. thanx guys. i guess my only option is to get the right swing arm. or an r belt r tensioner and r sprocket witch im not going to do because i just bought a cr sprocket and cr belt. thanx again looking for a used swing arm for a cr if anyone noes where to get one i checked on twin motorcycles and ebay no luck. | ||

I am sure someone can chime in, but people do cr to r swing arm swaps. I don't have time to look for the thread ATM. | ||

IIRC I thought that the CR arm was LONGER? The rear "sprocket" was also larger the CR is geared "deeper" | ||

"im on a mission from god" blues brothers quote im from Joliet ill. i went on a bike trip last may with my church to the tail of the dragon and my stator went out on the way there, so i never got to do the tail. i rented a bmw and did an off road mnt trail. im trying to go this may but i need a cr swing arm! used because i cant afford a new one. thanx for all the help guys. also was wondering if the r pulley wheel is bigger than the cr and maby i can just swap them?  | ||
| Tomseliga |
ok the pulleys are the same size i read someone made a custom one so they didn't have to swap the swing arm where can i get one! lol it would be a lot cheaper than another swing arm  | ||

Oops !  Both of my postings were for an R swingarm ... Sorry ! | ||
| Dannybuell |
the R has longer legs than the CR. with 18,000 miles on my CR I could see having longer legs on the bike. keep going, you are more than 1/2 way to an R conversion; sprocket, belt, and tensioner pulley. | ||
| Zac4mac |
Essentially,the "R" is one gear taller than a "CR". So where the CR tops out - the R still has another gear another 1-1.5 Krpm . Z (Message edited by zac4mac on April 22, 2013) | ||

well i got a guy who is a machinist and is going to make me a sleeve to press over my stock pulley wheel that will make it 3/4 in bigger that is what Mike1125r says he did instead of swapping arms when he did the r to cr swap belt and pulley (rear sprocket) thanx everyone! |
