Default Clutch Lever

Hi y'all,

Just had my K4 serviced and my ride back I noticed the clutch bites later than I was used to. Ie: When releasing the clutch lever it doesn't bite until its almost fully released. It took some getting used to, is there a simple tweak to get it to bite about half way through the motion of releasing the clutch handle?

Cheers in advance
Dan

Should be able to do that from the lever end of the cable.

Move the rubber cover, loosen the lock nut (big round one) and then adjust the smaller one so it's how you like it. Then tighten the lock nut again.

Or search for "clutch adjustment" and do it properly.

Apologies for the basic questions, but which way should the big nut be tightened? Presumably towards the smaller adjuster? I found it loose today after encountering exactly the same situation as the OP (bite point moved forward after service).
Also, which way should the smaller adjuster be turned?
