Not bad at all...The cover that the cable attaches to has a ramp that when you pull on the cable, the ramp 'tries' to climb up itself but instead pushes the rod out towards the left. That's how a clutch disengages,
If you pulled it during the adjustment though, it went too far and 'flipped.'
Loosen the cable adjusters, pull the cover, ( you'll have to loosen the exhaust,) and put the ramp lever back down to about 6:00 O'clock. (Stretch the cable taught down there, in other words.)
Re-assemble, ( make sure the 3 ***** stay in their groove in the ramp,) then re-adjust your clutch pack, and then your cable in that order.
And remember: Never pull on the clutch lever DURING adjustment!
