Maintenance and Adjustment
Clutch
1. C l u t c h l e v e r
2. 2 - 3 mm
The motorcycle is equipped with a
cable-operated clutch.
If the clutch lever has excessive free play, the
clutch may not disengage fully. This will cause
difficulty in changing gear and selecting
neutral. This may cause the engine to stall
and make the motorcycle difficult to control.
Conversely, if the clutch lever has insufficient
free play the clutch may not engage fully,
causing the clutch to slip, which will reduce
performance and cause premature clutch
wear.
Clutch lever free play must be checked in
accordance with scheduled maintenance
requirements.
Inspection
Check that there is 2 - 3 mm clutch lever free
play at the lever.
If there is an incorrect amount of free play,
adjustments must be made.
Adjustment
Note:
• The clutch adjuster sleeve is
prevented from turning by a
ratchet mechanism.
Turn the adjuster sleeve until the correct
amount of clutch lever free play is achieved.
If correct adjustment cannot be made using
the lever adjuster, use the cable adjuster at
the lower end of the cable.
Loosen the adjuster locknut.
Turn the outer cable adjuster to give
2 - 3 mm of free play at the clutch lever.
Tighten the locknut.
