Default Clutch adjustment anyone?

I know how to adjust for clutch play, but I want to adjust the clutch so that it grabs sooner, rather than later. Does anyone know how to do it? Thanks.

There are two little round dealies just by the clutch handle. One isquarter lookingcircle with a ridged edge so you can grab it and the other is a smaller cylinder looking deal that is ridged as well but is also threaded on the inside. You can see your clutch cable in the smaller one. Loosen the big one, then move the small one around til you like it and retighten the big one. It will take some trial and error to find where you like it. Make sure you retighten.

My 07 cbr rr clutchwon't let the bike roll until about 1/10 ofpressing the clutch. Pressing the clutch in just about 1/10 is too little I think.

I think I would like it to let the bike start rolling at about 1/4 or even 1/3of pressing the clutch.

Would 1/2 be better? How far in do you guys press your clutch to start the bike rolling off first gear?

More in is better or less in is better?

What is the usual / default / average depth?

press the clutch? you mean letting it out. my 03 doesnt start to catch until its more then half way out, like all the action with the clutch is when its almost fully released. I dont like it for starts but i think they do it like that for faster shifting, i dont have to pull my clutch all the way in when shifting so it takes less time and is easier on my hand.

Yep meant letting it out. Sounds like "almost out" = 1/10, so mines "default" normal.

Thx
