My ten year old TAUER Machine, 3" Open Primary has an adjustment problem. I have 37K, with one clutch pack change at around 30K.
I replaced the clutch fibers and steels with the manufacture recommended ALTO Red Eagles that were in it previously. I replaced them because they got a lot of oil on 'em and were slipping.
The clutch pack will not fully release unless the Clutch Adjusting screw is lightly touching the Clutch Pushrod. If I lightly seat and then back off a quarter turn as per instructions, the Clutch Lever doesn't have enough throw to release the Clutch.
The Clutch Lever has ZERO slack, and takes about 3/4 pull to release the Clutch.
I've measured stack height, and it's within spec. I also put washers under the Clutch Lever Cable, only thing this did was give me less adjustment at the Cable Adjuster.
Could my Clutch Pushrod be too short, too long? This a very long bike...I had to have the Clutch Cable manufactured to fit.
