    Hi All,

    So as a follow up to an earlier post that I think I made here, I adjusted the clutch cable on my 94 Kat to try and make the clutch disengage fully when the lever is pulled in. I don't think I was totally successful. When shifted into 1st and with the clutch pulled in, I still feel some stiffness in rolling the bike with my legs. Also, with the lever pulled in and RPMs high (around 9-10k) I feel the bike pulling forward slightly. Is this "acceptable" in terms of the clutch not disengaging fully, or a more serious problem?

    I adjusted the clutch cable so that there is just a few mm of free play at the lever, to be sure that it would engage fully.
    Remove the black CAP on the sprocket cover, loosen the lock nut on the clutch adjuster and back the screw off a lil more (counter clock wise), then tighten the lock nut again. If the cable adjustment is good then it can only be the adjuster screw itself that is set to tight. back it off 1/8 ~1/4 turn and try that.
