I am sure there is a limit to how far you can go right? I wonder what it is set like from the factory. I will have to check mine out. It is one of the very few little things bugging me. The clutch cable adjustment is another thing I need to mess with.....way too much slack in the cable.

My owners manual on my 11 Dyna shows 5 positions and the use of a spanner tool. Guess I'll have to pick one up. Would also like to know the factory setting?
