Hi all. I know these bikes have heavy clutches but this lever is almost unusable - I'm not being a pansy! Is there anything I can do at all to make the clutch lighter?
Have you used the bike, or was it sitting. You can oil the cable, if its been sitting the plates may be stuck together.
Take out the push rod almost certainly has overheated blued and gone soft causing it to buckle and jam up This was mine clutch was a real pain new rod adjusted properly and it's A1
If its still heave after maybe a mod like this might be of interest ...... http://www.benchmarkworks.com/articles/howto/clutch.html
