Default Clutch help

My clutch does not engauge smoothly, rather the engine speeds up and it jerks to take off. What do I need to do to correct this?

Remove it and inspect the buttons. They could be worn out and not sliding properly.

Certain clutches can be rebuilt or bad parts replaced but your better off buying a new one or atleast used in very good shape

Danny has a 2007 XRT 800...
Unless it has a crap load of hours on it, I doubt it'll need replacing!
I'll agree with JD, and Springbok, it's probably just dirty and/or worn buttons.

The buttons are inside the drive clutch... you'll have to remove it from the engine, and take it apart...
It really isn't all that difficult, (just time consuming) but, you'll need a drive clutch puller.

Drive clutch buttons are inexpensive, and usually the cause of your scenario.

Thanks for the info Lockman, do I have to remove the engine to pull the clutch, it doesn't look like there is enough room as is?

Nope!
There's enough room to pull the drive clutch without doing anything with the engine!
