Hello all!
My problem:
I bought an accidented bike with no clutch lever. After all the painting and rebuild, the bike is almost ready. Now comes the fun part. I put the new lever, start the bike on the center stand and when I try to squeze the clutch lever I have to apply a lot of force.
I opened the clutch cover, the friction plates were a bit stuck, I cleaned them, perform a oil change, but nothing, can't squeeze the lever. I have 2 options when adjusting from the lever nut or clutch cover nut, ON and OFF.
Eighter is too loose and nothing happend when I squeeze the lever, eighter is verry tight and again, almost nothing happens when I hardly squeeze it, except a little friction sound coming from the clutch cover. Eighter way,
If I try to press the metal rod (the one marked with red) with my hand I can't. The problem starts from it, how much force is normal to be used to push it?
I can't use the clutch. Any ideas?
