...and don't forget to make sure the cable adjustment at the sprocket cover is not at one extreme or the other. I like to use the sprocket cover adjustment, initially, in lieu of the clutch lever adjustment. Like Bill, I then make minor adjustments at the lever.tbpmusic said:
Clutch Drag
Hey guys,
So now that I finally have plates for my 76 cb500T I can actually test ride it legally (an important thing when you live in NYC). While stopped at red lights I noticed that at times my bike wanted to creep forward. As I understand it this is called drag yes? Anyway, I suppose the next order of business is taking apart the right crankcase and inspecting the pressure plates and springs with calipers. Clutch freeplay seems to be ok. Any suggestions/ ideas?
