Adjusting Clutch Cable on FZ6
« on: 14 May 2017, 07:09:29 pm »
I need to adjust the clutch cable on my FZ6, but the adjuster by the clutch lever is already all the way out.

The Haynes manual says to remove the tank, battery and airbox to get access to the other adjuster which is down between the frame and the engine, but I don't want to have to do all that if I don't have to.

If I lift the tank I can see the adjuster, but there's not enough gap to get tools into the space.

So does anyone have any suggestions to sort this out without all the palaver of removing the battery and airbox?

Presumably it works similar to the FZS, the lower end is only a very minor adjustment, although is a necessary one to function  well.
I'm guessing you'll be looking at a new cable if it's fully out at the top end.
