Seems I have a problem with the clutch.
When I bought my bike one of the first things I did was adjust the clutch so that it takes close to the handlebar, about a 1/3 of they way out. I have had to readjust this twice to keep it there and have now run out of adjustment.
Its almost like the cable is getting shorter??
If I were adjusting the cable casing away from the engine ie the cable was stretching, I would almost understand, but to adjust the casing towards the engine suggests that the cable is getting shorter(not likely) or my clutch is wearing out.
I only have 4700km on it at the moment. I contacted BM PE and they say clutches are excluded from warranty. Surprise surprise  :xxbah:.

Anyone else have clutch issues??

So next Friday, I will be trailering it down to PE. Guess I better take the vaseline with :mad:
