[QUOTE="Avispa, post: 16076210, member: 78552"] Sorry to be so late to the party, but was searching the forum and this tread was really interesting. I had to replace my clutch cable a few days ago and found my release fork almost jammed up against the back of the opening. It was in the correct place (about midway in the opening) when I replaced the (cheap POS adjustable) clutch cable in Feb. Replaced with a factory style MM cable, but this one had the quadrant end pop off in traffic:mad:. The clutch is a Spec stage 2+ with light effort pedal. How does changing the pivot ball length change the release point on the clutch? I thought the release point was controlled by the thickness of the disk(s) and the type of plate, and hanging the pivot ball length was only to put the fork in the right place to compensate for different pressure plate and flywheel types. As the disk wears out on a diaphragm clutch, the fingers extend more away from the flywheel - and at a certain point all the pedal travel isn't enough to lift the PP away from the disk so it won't fully release. New diaphragm clutches like RXT and RST by design have a high release point. Seems like the only way to move it down is to use the pedal height adjuster like the MMCL-7. Can you help explain? Thanks.
