I recently installed a Rekluse Torq Drive Clutch in my 2015 R1200GS and it was super simple to do. Here is the process I took to complete the job.

This video is a how to install video of the Rekluse after market clutch. So far I am very happy with the performance of the clutch but I will do a more thorough review once I have some more miles on the clutch.

Hope you enjoy this video, thanks for watching!

Nice going with that clutch install👍🏻. What are the advantages to putting in this aftermarket clutch? Do you think it will last longer, or perform better? Any ideas how long a stock clutch will last under normal operating conditions? I guess that’s enough questions for now....sorry 🥴. Could you leave a link for the setup you used to torque down your bolts with? I hadn’t seen one of those before and would like to add it to my toolbox. I’m interested in seeing your continuing adventure. Ride safe!

Not having a permanent residence and using a public storage bay for tools storage and a nice work area is pure genius!

I never see videos of BMW tech tips. You should do some more videos like this. I am sure there are plenty of BMW owners that could use the advise. Although I am a sportster rider, I enjoy watching how other bikes work. I've been wrestling with the idea of getting a ADV bike, but I have to get one that is easy to work on, and not that expensive for parts. I know people say Harleys are expensive, but they are so easy to work on. The parts are really not that expensive. Great video... keep up the great content.

Don't have a BMW, but appreciate the thoroughness of the video nonetheless. Great Stuff!

Very interesting to see a real motorcycle mechanic at work. Downside is that I feel a bit less proud of myself for having installed my own cell phone holder on the handlebars. :) Ride safely.

Being new to BMW, this is right on time for me. I love learning and this was a concise video! No excess talking, just good info.
It's the "motorcycle" part of "motorcycles, camping and adventure" and I'd like more, please! 😉

After watching this i am much more inclined to go for the LC. Didn't know how much easier they made the clutch change since then. Thanks!

Great video! However, there are two threaded holes either side, fourth hole up if I remember, that you screw a 6mm bolt in each and wind in evenly to pop the cover off without hitting it with a mallet!

Great job. Way to put your mechanical skills to use. Thanks for showing us the process and making sure to cover the oh SH.... parts to NOT mess up with torque and order etc..

@douglasmacy709 7 years ago

Very impressive. Made me realize that I could actually do one. Thank you for the education

@younggun9956 7 years ago

Great vid Tim!! If you are ever in a hurry for a quick gasket "the right stuff" works great but you have to be fast it sets up in 5 mins. Ride safe brother!

I ride a Honda and have no mechanical experience, but found this informative! Great detail.

@eziodamico633 5 years ago

You did a hell of work! Great

@randlayman2668 7 years ago

Just the way we do it in the service dept of all the shops I've worked in for my career, ride safe ride far,Rand

Normally don’t comment on the videos, but, this is excellent. I vote this the Video of the Year 2019. More, more!

@nigelstanley3674 7 years ago

Tim that is definitely beyond my wrench skills at the moment but having the insight from your video makes me even more determined to start getting a little more dirty with the bike. Safe riding.
