  1. Clutch adjustment question

    I just installed new levers on my Roadster and am adjusting the freeplay for the clutch cable. I know I need to have 2-3mm play at the lever, but is that prior to any movement of the clutch actuator arm or prior to the point when you can feel the increased resistance of clutch starting...
  2. Clutch Judder?

    Hey all, My '11 Roadster has been juddering under lower RPMs and moderate load. I initially thought it was the clutch, so I replaced the clutch, and adjusted the clutch as per the manual. It still has the weird judder. Could a faulty detent spring cause this? It has no issue staying in gear...
  3. Clutch safety switch

    Is it ok to wire the clutch switch open? It would make my wire routing easier if I eliminated it plus it would be one less thing that could go wrong.

  5. I have a bad feeling about this... Clutch Actuator Arm.

    Hi guys, I was changing the clutch cable on my 14 R3R this evening - I'm doing the Classic Handlebars and Revco Risers mod so I got the longer throttle cables and clutch cable from a R3T. Anyway I took off the clutch actuator arm (I thought it would be easier to change the cable). When I...

  7. Bypass Clutch Safety Switch?

    This 2 handed start is bullsh*t. Does a method exist to bypass the safety switch so that the ECM is not affected and without any other negative consequences? I did search the forum a few times before making this post, but did not find the info. I have considered moving the switch to a new...
  8. Changing clutch and brake levers - recommendations?

    While I do have large hands (XXL glove size) I find there to be a little too much stretching/reach for the brake and clutch levers. Any recommendations on changing these to something with a shorter throw? I haven't ever changed these on any of my other bikes so this is new to me. Thoughts...
  9. Clutch failure .... need some advice

    Hey Everyone. I've had the lifter pin on my clutch fail on me. Not sure of the root cause, could have been free play, could have been for the same reason that my steels warped (see my other thread), but it popped clean off which is odd, in any event I am now replacing my lifter pin. but here...

  14. Clutch is smoked

    I didn't think I was playing that hard. I really didn't. So now it's time to pay. I adjusted the hell out of the clutch last night including moving the arm on the case to give it a little more play. It turns out I did adjust it correctly as adjusting it the opposite way just keeps pulling on...

  16. Clutch choices

    I'm hoping to figure out my issue with the stock clutch without replacement so soon but I thought maybe we could list the options and make it a sticky. The two I've heard of are Barnett and MTC. I also read somewhere we can use kawasaki 1000 springs to get a little more clamp down on it...

    I was riding harder than I should have this afternoon and I finished by doing slow speed maneuvers with a lot of clutch and throttle. I had a lot of clutch slippage the rest of the way home. When I got home I adjusted the cable out a little at a time and had slippage each time. Now I have the...
