c) While holding the top
end of the rubber band
against the handlebar,
stretch the band
downward, then loop it
through itself.
d) Pull the band through
the loop, then attach it
to the outside end of
the clutch lever. This
will take up the initial
free play (slack) and
put the lever in a
position to detect the
Free Play Gain.
e) While still in
NEUTRAL
, quickly rev the engine between
5,000-7,000 RPM (1/2 to ¾ throttle), then let it return to
idle. Notice the movement in the clutch lever when the
engine is revved. This is your Free Play Gain.
Note:
It is very important the motor returns to idle before
revving the engine again or Free Play Gain will not be
correct.
f) When the bike returns to idle, rest your hand across
the clutch lever. Rev the engine again to 5,000-7,000
RPM so you can observe the movement while feeling
for Free Play Gain with your hand.
