VERY HARD CLUTCH HANDLE...GSX750EF '86


Recommended Posts

Cable stretching ?  Cable has been cut by a sharp edge , maybe at adjuster and is hanging by a decreasing number of threads.   Don't ask how I know this .  Pray the final self adjustment happens in the supermarket car park and not ur sunny mountain road.

Thanx Rich,

The big nut holding all the hub sleeve was loose!  And 1 of the spring screws was broken...Now I tightened the  hub nut, then tightened all 4 spring bolts...Mountid cover etc...Adjusted cable again (and the adjuster down at the pushrod)....Start the bike, press the clutch, put 1st gear on and the bike jumps and stops (Like putting 1st gear in without pressing the clutch lever)...SPRING BOLTS TOO TIGHT?

Everything sorted...the primary gear wasn't well fited, now it is...The clutch was still stiff but I cleaned the lever with wd40 and PERFECT! Thanx everyone. Lesson learned.
