ssanddemon Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 (edited) If you are wondering why no one has replied in 4 1/2 hrs. to your question, I'll tell you- everyone is tired of telling the newbies to buy a Clymer's manual! Buy the book, read it, and if you still don't understand, then by all means post for help! The book details clutch adjustment ad nauseum, every which way and back. I get annoyed at having to look up specs for lazy S.O.B.s and I guess this post reflects that. Edit: sorry for my pissy attitude.

Shee-Male Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 I dunno why sanddemon has to be such a crusty bitch, I joined BHQ to give/recive info for a sport/ hobby we all love...thats why we join and pay money...calls U a newbie..lol its a clutch adjust not Quantum physics...ha "specs" he says...lol Anyway now that I've vented...to adjust the mechanisim itself fully losen the cable in line length adjuster jamnut and screw in the adjuster until tight (@ the lever) then your gonna have to take off the clutch cover, then losen the the adjuster locknut on the pressure plate, then bring the point on the push lever (ontop of the crankcase) to the little mark on the crankcase and tighten the jamnut. Turn the mechanism adjuster (in the middle of the pressureplate locknut) in until resistance is felt, then back out a 1/4 turn and tighten the locknut. set up your freeplay at the lever and your off! See sanddemon that wasn't so hard now when someone dose a search they'll find this! Have fun bick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssanddemon Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 It's funny, a she-male calling me a bitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssanddemon Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 By the way she-male, the problem I have isn't with helping out, it's that people SHOULD have the book. If they are too lazy or cheap to buy one and just expect someone to give up time to give detailed instructions on basic repairs, it is no fun to anyone, it's just drudgery, slogging thru the same easy stuff with each new guy who doesn't want to pony up for basic info and specs. By the way Bick, I'm not trying to heap this all on you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ssanddemon Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 First I'm a bitch, now I'm a hypocrite? You are a real nice (guy?) she-male! Yes, my post was longer than the repair instructions, but that's not the point. I don't mind helping people AT ALL. But I check out HQ for fun - not work. And it sure is FUN making FUN of you.

Wallrat Posted December 27, 2005 Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 But I check out HQ for fun - not work. So don't frequent the repairs and mods forum. 80% of the stuff discussed here is right out of a clymers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
