[QUOTE="DannyMoto07, post: 1183881, member: 76870"] No one here has mentioned for cable-clutches that when you adjust the cable it works OPPOSITE from a brake cable... if you TIGHTEN the cable you will make the throw distance GREATER... if you LOOSEN the cable, you will bring the throw distance closer to the bars. Basically you want your clutch to JUST START to grab once the lever leaves your knuckles... Also, if you use riding gloves make sure you wear them when you adjust the cable. The slightest difference in diameter of your fingers will make a ton of difference in the throw-out. Good luck. -Also, everything about the clutch is hard to justify unless you take 2 perfectly brand new bikes and ride them exactly the same only on 1 you clutch during shifts, and the other you dont... when you blow up the clutch in one, you know which way is the best way. As long as you let off the gas when you switch gears, you're fine. It's called power shifting... you can do it in cars... i think it's also refered to "double clutching" by basically matching engine speed to the speed of the clutch you can simply slide it into another gear no problem. Use your head. If you're crusing, don't clutch.. if you're climbing, crawling, or zipping around... clutch it. [/QUOTE]
