  • Possible Clutch cable fail

    Recently, when I release the clutch lever, it doesn't go all the way back out like it normally would. I would have to push the lever back out and it make a clicking noise. This hasn't effected the actual clutch, but does this indicate the clucth cable maybe failing? Thank you for any input.
    Is that your bike outside? I ride.... competitively.

    Maybe cable and maybe clutch pushrod worm gear is dry but then again, maybe a combo of both items needing lubrication. Possibly the spring on the worm gear too.

      Good idea. I'll give that a try.

        Um...adjust the slack in the clutch cable. I keep the width of a quarter as my freeplay rule, any more and I have to push the lever back like you are talking about.
        90% of motorcycle forum members do not have a service manual for their bike.
