Posted elsewhere but pretty sure it was in the wrong place.....
Afternoon. Been lurking on here for years and always found the perfect solution to any problems I've had. Hoping I can get some pointers on something I'm struggling with. [/size]Firstly bike is a 98 fazer 600 34000[/color][/size] milesProblem started with clutch adjustment at lever being all the way out and bite point being hit and miss. Adjusted at sprocket cover - in until resistance 1/4 out and then re adjusted at lever. No difference to bite point.New cable fitted. Not Oem one. (Never again)! Helped a little but then got worse. Bite point is the same when cold and neutral selection fine when cold but as soon as engine heats up clutch drags, gear changes get a bit harder and without revving when stopped it would stall with no chance of getting neutral. So to try to sort I have replaced;clutch plates and oem springs (torqued properly)New oil and filterYamaha clutch cable Degreased and regreased the actuator thing that clutch cable attaches to Still have the same problem of once engine heats up the bite point moves and the clutch drags when stationary. Any ideas??? Thanks in advance Dom
