    Hi Folks,

    I've noticed that my clutch lever adjustment barrel screw seems to loosen itself while riding, perhaps with the vibrations. Mine seems to be screwed up right to the lever level since collection day, everything about the clutch feels fine in terms of the biting point, free play etc. It's just the screw loosens up slightly every ride and then I screw it back up to its standard position. Have any of you noticed this on your bikes?

    Thanks in advance.

    Spoke to my dealer and he advised putting a cloth over it and tighten a bit further with pliers. Seems to have done the trick and not messed up my clutch biting point or free play, just needed tightening a bit further than hand tightness.
