Weird Problem with Clutch
Ok I don't know what caused this to start but i can't seem to figure it out. I tried searching but came up empty handed. So it almost seems like my clutch is always engaged even when i pull the clutch lever in. I checked the cable and tried adjusting it but it just doesn't seem to work. i'm probably adjusting it incorrectly...
anyone else ever have this prob?

You dont have to do burnouts to burn up your clutch. You can do wheelies and burn it up too. They are pretty simple to change out.what you need are new friction plates. you can find a clutch on ebay or www.bikebandits.com you can find the friction plates there too.

burnt plates will cause them to stay engaged? I would think just the opposite, that the clutch would slip even when engaged. but, I have never had to deal with the clutch, so I could be completely wrong.
my first guess would be that the cable is not adjusted correctly

RE: Weird Problem with Clutch
Stephens, that's the strange part. I've been riding motorcycles for a while and haven't encountered such a prob; i've encountered slipping just not the opposite lol. So in neutral it's fine, once in first gear it just wants to move forward. if i have the brake on, it'll stall. otherwise it'll be in first gear and rolling. and i can shift up and down fine, BUT it feels like it BARELY disengages, but it seems to be getting worse and worse.
And yes, CBR_Slim_T, i adjusted both. after realizing the lever one was at it's limit with no effect, i turned to the one by the engine for major adjustments. I have plenty of tension in the cable. So that is why i'm going to say it's not the cable.
