Clutch cable

[bdm7250]

The only thing I would add to those instructions is that sometimes the 1/4" back off might be too much if your bike wants to creep when the clutch is pulled in, and if it does, you might want to lessen the 1/4" to 1/8" or 1/16"

Just got off the phone with Ker, bout to take my cover off because I have no play on my chain when applying my clutch and pulling the plug out revealed some metal shrapnel..

Took cover off.. everything looks good.. no visual chipping away of gears or n e thing like that.. there is however about a little under a quarter inch of play in the gear with the clutch adjustment out

Yep been there with fingers for tight...kinda scary. That's why I said red loctite and 150 lbs earlier. If I buy another Big Dog I won't ride it until I take it off and retorque that nut specifically.

I was referring to what ever is that redish liquid around the nut.

Behind that clutch basket is a transmission seal while you got it apart already might want to take a peak at it. And you can check if any play in the transmission shaft.

Not sure if knowing Ker better is actually good for you, great you found the problem and did catch your nut before it fell off.
