What Causes the Clutch Travel to Become Shorter on a Motorcycle?
1 Answers
With prolonged use, the clutch cable will stretch, and components of the clutch operating system will experience wear. As a result, the travel of the clutch lever generally increases, and the distance required to pull the lever becomes shorter. In such cases, you can adjust the clutch cable's travel as needed. For example, there are usually adjustment screws on the cable or the lever itself. The motorcycle clutch is located on the left side of the motorcycle's footrest. Precautions: When starting, the motorcycle should be in neutral. After ignition, the motorcycle should be in normal idle speed. Hold the clutch lever with your hand, shift into first gear, and then slowly release the clutch for a smooth start. Clutch Introduction: Before installation, the clutch must be thoroughly cleaned to remove anti-rust grease and debris. The clutch can be installed coaxially or on separate shafts, but axial fixation is essential. For wet electromagnetic clutches, lubricating oil must be added between the friction plates during operation. When installing jaw-type electromagnetic clutches, ensure there is a certain gap between the end-face teeth to prevent grinding when idling.
