Have you made the adjustment at the clutch pack behind the primary cover yet?
Yes a few times. I can only back it off about 1/4 turn. If I back it off 1/2 to 1 full turn the clutch won't release correctly.
The adjustment on the cable is on the last threaded groove.
I’ve been thinking about buying the Fat Baggers EZ clutch adjuster but I wonder what the purpose of the spring is on factory adjuster.
I adjusted my mine to get the friction zone closer to the grip. I have the click that’s been mentioned before. I’m not sure if it started after that or not.
I can’t find much on reviews of the FBI adjuster other than what was mentioned in this thread.
The guys at the dealer haven’t even heard about it. This seems like a weak point on the new bikes.

You just remove the spring when installing the EZ adjuster, took me about 30 min to install it, you also have much more accurate clutch adjustment with it. The big reason I installed one was hearing some having the plastic adjuster break.
