Hi everyone,
Does anybody have any tricks on how to adjust the clutch cable? The adjuster is hidden behind all the oil pipes and I can’t get to it…
Cheers,
Gui

Re: Sq 4 adjusting the clutch cable
Can you adjust the cable enough by adjusting the operating lever? This is from Nicholson's book:
1946 4G and 1951 VH
Re: Sq 4 adjusting the clutch cable
Yes, i shall probably have to do that. I just hope there’s enough adjustment there without the lever hitting the inspection cap…

Re: Sq 4 adjusting the clutch cable
I'm using one with a 'mid-adjuster' (actually up by the bars).
