I have gone through the 17 pages of search results here and I still can't figure it out. The Haynes manual is useless.
My clutch engages at the outer end of the lever travel. That means I have to let go almost all the way for it to grab. Most threads here suggest adjusting per manual. Did that, nothing changed. Next suggestion is usually to replace the cable.
I have just put in a new set of friction plates, new springs and a new cable. Cleaned and greased the worm gear, oiled the cable, greased the perch. Adjusted per the manual - turned the Phillips screw until resistance is felt, then adjusted at perch, although there was practically no need to adjust there.
Lever pull is butter-smooth now. However, it still grabs at the very end of the lever travel. What am I missing?
