Re: clutch probs 1340evo

I found that while the clutch pushrod adjustment is easy, the amount of free play there (one full turn) was something i had never come across.....but it worked.

Like i said i made the same mistake, it 'felt' real bad leaving that much free play...........but it worked.
we all gotta learn, it's a good feeling working on your own ride.
