Default Clutch housing

just had my bars swapped. The clutch lever is rotated up higher than I’d prefer. Is the housing not have index marks? if not I’ll rotate it down. But the brake lever is positioned perfect.

The translation to purrrfect is only relevant on how many times you have watched the movie EZ Rider.
The more times the more points, and more patches you can put on your stuff.!
Simple right?
The more lines you can repeat from any of the actors are also good for merit badges.
I highly recommend you beep boop over, get some popcorn and get to studying.
After 5 or 7 times you will know right where to set the clutch levers at, handlebar angle and most importantly
know how to say "we just want to be free " with the right diction, tone , pitch and modulation.
then you will get to use the Countersteer lever , self-articulating over center bar and the other secret devices.
Then, you know you will know how to be kool, look kool, and have everything set for everyone except yourself.

Truly it is the isometric of the quadrant.
Step one- Substantially brace your bike 90 deg to the horizon.
This is most crucial as it has to represent a free-standing unit.
Once that it accomplished the operator in charge should take possession of said vehicle so as
to transpose themselves onto/into the supposed position of articulation.
With all appendages appropriately orientated to the normalcy of opertion, the operator grip will readily define the
obvious index correlation.
Losen and adjust the adjuster segment that operates the numerous avenues with their mechanical advantage
so as in turn they fit the limbs attached to the alleged operator..
Refasten to appropriate torq.

Hay.
I challenge you to rebuff the stated point of argument.

Ok so I’m guessing no one really wants to answer the question but glad you made the effort to show your ignorance...

Jerry: You mentioned that you just swapped your bars, so it's tough to say if what you have is indexed or not. I can't remember if my stock bars were or not; it's been so long since I had them. The bars that I now have is indexed on the left side though, but only you or the manufacturer of your new bars would know if yours is unless you're willing to mention what bars you now have. Someone helpful will eventually chime in, I'm sure.
