Clutch adjuster nut (handlebar end)

Post by **iDemonix** » Fri Feb 15, 2013 9:25 pm

For those following my plight, I got a lift home from Oxford to Nottingham to move my bike from my parents to my new house since the full rebuild. Four miles down the road, clutch cable snapped. 4 hours for recovery and I had to get a lift back to Oxford.

Two weeks later, I'm back, with a new clutch cable, and now this little wanker will NOT turn for love nor money:

Ignore the foam, it's soaking in silicone spray - I took ALL my tools and WD40 etc to Oxford, I'm stuck with screwdrivers and adjustable spanners... going to borrow some pliers tomorrow but it's well and truly welded.

Do these adjusters fit from any other bike? I'm presuming surely they must...

Cheers,
Dan

Cheers matey, I'm going to my dad's workshop (carpenter) tomorrow to have a go, might give you a shout but we should have all the tools we need at the workshop - it'll either come off or be mullered!

To be honest I want a new one anyway as obviously this one is a fecking nightmare to adjust.

You might find that Pidcocks have one in stock, if you're lucky...?

The cbr600f ones are cable clutched and the perch is the same, im pretty sure the cbr125 pre 2007 are the same also. Take it to honda counter a decent partsan worth his money will know which one will fit most hondas share parts along the lines.

Cheers :)

I think I'll have a bash at the workshop, if that fails, I'll probably strip the lever unit off the handlebars and take it to Honda Pidcocks - although getting the entire unit off the bars with no tools would be interesting.

Adjust the cable at the engine end? Its only a fine adjuster there for when the cable stretches. There is enough adjustment available to cover you.

The adjusters are a standard part. Pretty much any Jap model adjuster should fit unless it's from some of the 125s, there's one or two about with smaller adjusters.

Chuck it in the oven on a high temp for a little while and see if that frees it up.
Im sure they arnt hard to replace but your not going to let it beat you are you?!
