Got The Holeshot
Arm chair racerJust too addicted
So I bought a OEM Honda Clutch Holder Tool for my 200x. It was pretty cheap and i figured its nice to have the right tool for the job. So I tried using it today so i can torque down the oil rotor nut and flywheel bolt. But the tool doesnt hold the clutch well at all and pushes off the every time I try to torque the nut down. I don't understand it just thought id vent my frustration or if someone has used one they can tell me how it worked for them.

When I went and got my clutch holding tool I didn't think of an oem one I just found one on the site I usually shop at first. http://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/p/...H+HOLDING+TOOL That's the one I bought but they have a few different brands to. It also comes with instructions and you can watch videos right on their site about it if you have any questions. Good luck to ya!

Got the holeshot
the first time I did it I stuffed a bunch of rope in the spark plug hole, put it in first gear and then tightened it down. I had a helluva time getting the rope out if I remember right.

No pic Dc buts its a factory Honda tool, it holds around the clutch center plate and then slides on the kickstarter shaft to keep the clutch and basket and Crank from spinning

That tool holds the center of the clutch so you can tighten the clutch nut itself. This tool holds the clutch and basket so the crank doesn't spin

I just bought the same exact same tool and I had to modify mine a bit. I took a die grinder and lopped off about an eighth of an inch from the tops of the holders, then I painted the tips with rubber coating you can buy from any parts store. Then I inserted the ground down tips into two of the four slots on the inner hub of the clutch. After a little adjustment they fit right in and I placed the handle in my vice and then tightened down to the proper torque. Once you do the mod on the tool it actually works quite well. If you want some pics of my tool, I can send you some this weekend.

FYI a penny between the clutch gear and crank gear will do the same thing better, and for less. Best penny I never spent

A penny wont stop the inner clutch hub from rotating. Only two ways around it. Put the motor in the bike, put it in gear and have somebody apply the brake while you torque it or mod the clutch holder tool you just bought. The penny only stops the outer hub from turning.

I used vise grips on the countershaft to torque the clutch spanner nut. Id like to see how you modified your tool if u could post pics on here thanks.

Here you go.
The first three pictures are of the tool and its modifications. You can see that I took a couple millimeters off the top of the teeth (where I am pointing at) so it would easily fit in the inner clutch hub grooves. The last picture is where I put the tool. You can use any of the four holes outlined in red. You can have a second person hold the tool while you tighten, but I found it easier to mount the tool in my vice and just tighten myself. This makes easy work when you don't have the motor in the frame and you are working by yourself. Hope this helps.
