Pre-Ride Inspections
Mechanical Clutch
1. Squeeze the clutch lever toward the handlebar
and release it. It should move freely and
smoothly, and it should return to the rest posi-
tion quickly when released. If the lever fails to
perform as stated, service the clutch lever
before riding.
2. Freeplay (gap) is the amount of lever
movement from the rest position to the point of
cable resistance. Clutch lever freeplay should
be 0.5-1.5 mm. Measure the gap between the
clutch lever and the lever housing. Adjust
clutch lever freeplay if necessary. See page 178.
Tip: The starter interlock switch is dependent on the
clutch lever freeplay being set correctly to ensure activation of the clutch safety switch.
