hello all

my clutch has not been right since i've had this bike. i adjusted the cable (at 21k) and this improved matters no end but last time out on the bike i had to hold the lever right to the bar to keep the bike still while in gear. only half a mil out and the bike started creeping forward. bike has 22k on the clock.

having read up on here it seems several others have been along this road and there's a plug in the main clutch shaft that comes out and needs putting back in. towards this i removed the outer casing, springs, outer plate and all the inner plates today. i have not found a plug loose inside however.

i've never been inside a bike clutch before so my questions might be basic...

is this the plug that i'm looking for - in the end of the shaft in its correct place? (red arrowed)



or do i have to remove more parts?

my haynes manual tells me that i have a lot of measuring to do now, any recommendations for a cheap but good vernier caliper?

work is a bit thin on the ground right now so i don't have any spare money to pay anyone for this, hence diving in myself into what, for me, is uncharted waters.

Anyone know the headlight bulb type in a FZ1 Fazer (2007) all it says in the manual I have is that it is a halogen one 60/55 but not whether it is a H4 or H5?

Has anybody found a link for a download for the FZ8 Repair/Service manual?  :rolleyes

Happy with my recent purchase gone from a bmw gs 1150 got a good price for it ,put this Fazer in the shed and a large wad of cash in my wallet,happy boy .Just fitted later mirrors from detlev Louis info from forum ,I can actually see behind me now and they fold when putting it away ,great service fast delivery ,So whats next ....a hugger and then a can but can not decide which one oh and some risers and a seat cover and......looks like that wad of cash could go fairly quickly

We have been given new instructions for work vehicles saying to carrya tow rope for emergency use, I was told by the AA when they recovered my Focus last year that tow ropes are illegal and you should only use tow bars.
Does anyone know for definite before tow ropes are purchased for everyone?

Thanks
