Default Clutch adjustment?
Hey guys I just bought an '09 Night Rod Special, love the bike but having a slight issue with it. Im at 12k km, and Im getting a late engagement of the clutch. As in it doesnt fully seat until the clutch lever is all the way out.. Seeing as it is a hydraulic clutch, Im assuming there is no adjustment so what am I looking at here? Check the fluid, bleed the air out? If so how do I go about bleeding it out?

Thanks

I have a simular question that I posted over at 1130cc.com. From what I understand there is no way to adjust the point at which the clutch grabs on the VRSC with a hydraulic clutch.
