Default Re: Frustrated

My problem with the clutch when i first tried it was two fold. Mostly it was the darn clutch lever. But it was also that I didn't know that the clutch at first was very very tight. I worked it from the lever on the engine by hand many times before the lever would move it at all. When I installed a different kind of lever it began to work as it should. New clutch problems I was told are very common.

Trust me hang in there and keep working on the problems one at a time. These things can be a nightmare at first. Mine was with the carb. Actually mine was with me I was too dumb to know what I was doing.

I think I have it now and it's a blast. Just hang in there and fight it one battle at a time.
