Clutch Adjustment may be required if the motorcycle stalls when shifting into gear or tends to creep; or if the clutch slips, causing the engine to race ahead when accelerating hard or climbing steep hills. Freeplay at the lever (1) should be kept between 10-20mm (0.4-0.8in).
|
|
For minor adjustments, adjust the freeplay at the lever end as follows...
1. Loosen the locknut (2) and turn the adjuster (3). Direction (A) increases freeplay while direction (B) decreases freeplay.
2. Tighten the locknut (2) when done.

If the adjustment can't be reached at the lever end, then adjust it further from the clutch end as follows...
1. Loosend the locknut (4) and turn the adjusting nut (5) as required. Direction (A) increases freeplay and direction (B) decreases it. Tighten the locknut (4) when done.
NOTE: If proper adjustment can't be made using both methods above, then you may need to replace the clutch.

Other Checks:
Check the clutch cable for kinks or signs if wear that could cause sticking or failure. Lubricate the clutch cable with a good penetrating lubricant to prevent premature wear and failure. Apply the lubricant to both ends of the cable and work it in by operating the clutch lever several times. |
