Hi there people,
Another day another question!
Now that I've got the engine running nice I attached the clutch cable to go through the gears and make sure they were all engaging right.
They are all engaging OK but with no use to the clutch cable...
I tried adjusting it all to make the cable tighter etc but no joy. there is resistance behind the lever but it feels as though it's not pushing the rod far enough in?
I then tightened the cable right up thinking the rod may need to be pushed in further and I could hardly pull the lever and when I did it made no difference.
The ball bearing is still in the cable side of the clutch pusher/adjuster mechanism.
I did pull the push rod out . could the bearing from the clutch end have fallen out? the end of the rod that goes through the engine doesn't look as though it would have a ball bearing on the end because it is more convexed than concaved...
Here is a video of the bike going through the gears for the first time anyway.
Any help would be great!
Joe
