Lower Adjustment
If the upper clutch cable adjuster is threaded out near its limit, or the correct freeplay cannot be obtained, attempt adjustment with the lower clutch cable adjusting nut.
Loosen the upper lock nut and turn the upper clutch cable adjuster all the way in (to provide maximum freeplay). Tighten the upper lock nut.
Loosen the lower lock nut.
Turn the lower clutch cable adjusting nut until the clutch lever freeplay is 10 - 20 mm (0.4 - 0.8 in).
Tighten the lower lock nut and check the clutch lever freeplay.
Start the engine, pull the clutch lever in, and shift into gear. Make sure the engine does not stall and the vehicle does not creep. Gradually release the clutch lever and open the throttle. Your vehicle should move smoothly and accelerate gradually.
