without undue force and that it closes
without sticking. Have your authorized

doubt exists.

The motorcycle is equipped with a
cable-operated clutch.
If the clutch lever has excessive free
play, the clutch may not disengage fully.
This will cause difficulty in shifting gear
and selecting neutral. This may cause
the engine to stall and make the
motorcycle difficult to control.
Conversely, if the clutch lever has
insufficient free play the clutch may not
engage fully, causing the clutch to slip,
which will reduce performance and
cause premature clutch wear.
Clutch lever free play must be checked
in
accordance
with
scheduled
maintenance requirements.

‑
0.12
in
(2
‑

mm) clutch lever free play at the
lever.
If there is an incorrect amount of free
play, adjustments must be made.
