Always return the lever adjuster to the original setting as noted in step 1. Operating the motorcycle with lever
settings which are unfamiliar may lead to loss of control or an accident.
Clutch Lever - Pivot Bolt Lubrication
Before starting work, ensure the motorcycle is stabilised and adequately supported. This will help prevent it
from falling and causing injury to the operator or damage to the motorcycle.
1. Remove the nut and pivot bolt securing the clutch lever to the master cylinder.
2. Using Castrol Metal Parts Cleaner or an equivalent, clean the clutch lever pivot and the shank of the clutch
lever pivot bolt.
3. Apply a smear of silicone grease to the shank of the clutch lever pivot bolt.
4. Position the clutch lever to the clutch master cylinder. Ensure that the pivot boss is correctly aligned and
fitted to the push rod, and that the clutch switch actuation plate is correctly positioned to the clutch switch.
5. Secure with the pivot bolt and tighten to 1 Nm.
6. Counter hold the pivot bolt, fit and tighten the lock nut to 6 Nm.
Clutch Master Cylinder - Removal
Before starting work, ensure the motorcycle is stabilised and adequately supported. This will help prevent it
from falling and causing injury to the operator or damage to the motorcycle.
Remove the reservoir cover. Drain the fluid from the master cylinder using the bleed process (see Bleeding
the Clutch).
Release the two fixings and remove the spacer, handguard and the handlebar end weight. Discard the
fixings.
