Loose clutch cable.
What are the symptoms of a loose clutch cable.
Would the bike stall when coming up to a stop? |

No, I don't lend tools.

Re: Loose clutch cable.
Is there lots of slack at the lever? Does the lever get close to the 'bar before doing anything? If no then the cable isn't slack. Does the clutch drag?

Re: Loose clutch cable.
I noticed that the screw on the lever was very loose and turning freely, which seem to co-incide the bike starting to stall as I was coming up to junctions in second gear. I haven't had chance to ride the bike since tightening it up yesterday.

Re: Loose clutch cable.
don't become a cable fiddler, the clutch adjustment for the SV is a locknut & screw under the sprocket cover , adjust it properly first, then adjust the cable and leave it alone
