In this video, you will learn how to adjust a cable clutch: this system is applicable to most models. The cable must be adjusted neither too tight nor too loose, as the play in the lever must be just right to allow the clutch to engage and disengage properly. Remove the outer casing to access both the locking screw and the threaded cable. If the clutch disengages too early, the motorcycle will start too soon, so loosen the screw, then unwind the cable to reduce the play - this will facilitate gear engagement. However, if you extend it too much, the clutch will always be engaged, never disengaging, which can cause it to burn out. Therefore, you need to loosen the screw and tighten the block. Keep in mind that the clutch is very sensitive to temperature changes.
