Was out on a bit of a ride today. Accidentally just brushed the clutch lever and realised the amount of travel required to get it to slip was very little.

This, together with a recent comment from a Triumph mechanic, who said the clutch was a bit noisy has got me thinking it might be time to get it looked at.

Anyone have any experience of this, what it might involve, and whether it's a garage job or something an enthusiastic amateur might give it a go?

Check the play there should be about 5mm at the end of the lever 

 

Apart from that if it's not slipping on hard acceleration I wouldn't worry about it

Is it possible the cable is sticking and not releasing all the way 

I would remove the cable and test / clean & lubricate and reinstall

Sounds like I'm probably over thinking it, 5mm is about where it is. I do like those Evotech levers though 🤔

Do you have span adjusters already? as this will alter the amount of pull you need on the lever
