Title: Clutch action
Post by Arizuno on 07/27/11 at 18:00:33

OK, this is so profoundly newbie I'm reluctant to bring it up, but: My S40 definitely rolls around the garage more easily in neutral than it does in gear with the clutch disengaged. Also, putting it in gear generates a very mild, but noticeable, "surge". That said, it does NOT show any inclination to move until the clutch lever is released a reasonable amount. Is this normal? Did I phrase my question clearly enough that you know WTH I'm talking about?

yep, harder to push in gear
mild tug while in gear and running.

make sure you adjust the clutch lever with a bit of a gap in the lever so ;you know for sure the clutch is out.

Thanks, gentlemen. Clutch action feels OK when riding, so I guess everything is as it should be. God, I love this forum!
