2 months ago I posted a question about the clutch. Mine was dragging when the clutch lever was pressed. (When engine was on or off)
As lame as it is, I only got to check it out this weekend after purchasing the shop manual.
I adjusted the cable and the actuator according to the spec and I changed transmission oil and even replaced clutch lever, because the original was a little bent.
Started the bike and ran it a little bit, the good news, the clutch is not dragging anymore.
Turned off the bike, put it in first gear, press the clutch lever all the way in and the rear is locked. Turn on the bike in neutral, put it in first, and the rear is free. I can push the bike around in first when the clutch is pressed, just like it’s neutral.
My question, is this normal? What if I stall the bike on the trail? (Which happens lot) Do I have to find neutral and then kick start? It’s almost impossible to start the bike in 1rst with the clutch lever pressed.
Thanks,
