clutch
05/18/08 at 05:41:10

So I had to buy a clutch cable. It came in yesterday. I go and look at my bike which has been sitting locked up and covered behind my apartment this last week. The clutch arm has NO tention to it and is just spinning. I would attempt to fix it myself but I have no place to do this. I now have to take it (some how) to a shop that will over charge me to get it fixed. I could cry right now.

Unfortunately, you (or someone) needs to take the side cover off the look at it. thats a oil drain and new gasket. The most expensive part is if the arm broke, runs around $55-$60. All of the other parts that actuate the clutch are less than $10 .

Could easy be a parking lot fix unless you have a patrol that would come around and bug you.
