Clutch adjustment question
Just curious... (I adjusted my clutch freeplay today) The lever was sloppy loose.
How far from the grip must YOU release YOUR lever before the clutch starts to engage?
Mine was immediately but now it's about an inch. (I left about 1/16 of freeplay).
Trying to figure out if I got it right.

I just adjusted clutch and cable freeplay this afternoon (you commented on my post on a similar subject). Anyway, I have about the same situation as you describe and I think you're fine.
Mine worked just fine on the ride I took this afternoon in clear, 69 degree weather.

my clutch releases almost immediately upon let down. i adjusted it that way through the primary. the adjustment on the cable is just that..... an adjustment for the cable. the adjustment on the other side of the primary is how you will make up room or slack it for where you want the clutch to release.
