Setting the clutch troubles
Dolomite_:
The clutch cable has less than less than 1000 miles on it.
When I rebuilt the engine the balls were fine, they felt smooth and had no corrosion. Next time im in there Ill have a think about replacing them. Is there a part number or size for the ball bearings?
Whats the correct routing for the clutch cable?
There are some mentions of pictures on here but the image links are dead.
How did you set your click bite point?

I've just bought a new pattern clutch operating mechanism from DSS for not a lot of money because I had wear issues with both original mechanisms I had.

The clutch cable routing is here, also worth also looking at the push mile photos in Ashs drop box for the 400, links attached if they work.
