My Yamaha XT250 sits more often than it should - and the clutch has been getting stuck. Pulling in the clutch does not allow for shifting, or putting the motorcycle in gear. The bike stalls out as soon as you kick the gear shift down - even with the clutch lever pulled in. There is a fix for this that is quick and easy to do at home (with proper protective gear). In this video, I demonstrate how I get the clutch freed in our 2015 Yamaha dual sport. #dualsport #xt250 #motorcycle #purplecollarlife

Step 1: Put on the appropriate protective gear (helmet, gloves, etc.)
Step 2: Get the motorcycle to a downhill grade, somewhere safe with lots of space and no traffic. I find a yard works best.
Step 3: Start the motorcycle in Neutral, with the clutch pulled in
Step 4: While seated on the seat, push the bike forward and let it start coasting downhill
Step 5: Move the gear selector into first or second gear. Make sure the bike keeps running and does not stall out.
Step 6: Once you have some speed and momentum, make sure the clutch is pulled in and press down fast and hard on the rear brake. Note: The bike will come skidding to a halt abruptly - maintain your balance and stay safe.
Step 7: Repeat this process until the clutch starts working properly.
Step 8: If this process does not work for you - contact your local motorcycle repair shop.
