This seams to be a good source for the CBR400. Not used it yet, but inital visits look promising.

I don't know of any adjustible leaver for it as such, but I'm sure there is someone out there who makes one.

Someone will probably correct me but I imagine it will be a case of finding a bike with the same size handlebars that have an adjustible clutch. I belive this is the basis for the SV clutch mod (uses a GPZ600 leaver and mount). All you really need is a similar mounting bracket of the same diameter as the CBR. As its a cable adjustment it shouldn't be to much of a problem to set this up. However this is only speculation as I have not done this to either my SV or CBR.

Out of interest which model do you have, I've got a NC23 that I am about to start work on, so a cheap adjustable clutch would be a nice mod?

Handlebars are a pretty standard size, so find a bike with a span adjust leaver and replace the whole lever bit, clamp and all. An adjustable leaver off eBay won't set you back much :)

400GB is a great forum for 400cc owners but be warned - there are some idiots on there too.
