Best Answer

Remove the Clutch inspection cover from the primary cover (also called the derby cover). Loosen the clutch cable. The cable adjuster is located about half way down the clutch cable. Adjust so you have a lot of free play in the clutch lever. Go to the the clutch at the primary. You will see an Allen screw in the center of the clutch assembly, with a lock nut. Loosen the locknut several turns and turn in the Allen screw until resistance is felt. (just until you feel it start to tighten.) Then back off the Allen screw 1/2 to 1 turn counter clockwise. Tighten the lock nut to 72 to 120 in lbs of torque. Squeeze the clutch lever several times. Now go back to the clutch cable adjuster. Adjust it so you have about 1/8 inch of play between the clutch lever and the housing, when you squeeze the lever just enough to take up slack in the cable. Tighten the jam nut on the Cable adjuster and reinstall the Primary Cover. You should replace the cover gasket at this time. the torque for the cover is 84-108 inch lbs of torque.
