Hydrolic Clutch Question

[Cakes206]

How the hell do you adjust a hydrolic clutch...I like my clutch to grab about 1/2" from the grip...the street sv is grabing way out...anyone?

I don't think you can, Cakes. I think the best thing you can do is adjust the clutch with the little dial. I had to relearn the whole friction point thing when I hopped on the SV for the first time but it's second nature now.

Thats just it, there is no dial thing next to the lever like with a cable clutch...or you talking bout a different dial? :redhuh:

One sec, let me take a pic of mine.

Edit: Never mind, my batteries are dead. My clutch lever has a dial similar to the one on the brake lever where you can adjust the distance. Yours doesn't?

Oh ok...I know what you're talkin bout...that dial is for the physical lever position...what I need to adjust is where the clutch itself grabs...the bike doesn't start to move till I have the lever almost all the way out...thats way to far...make sense?

Sounds like a shop adjustment to me. Good luck with it!
