Re: quick q :D
well on an SV there is a connecting rod coming from the lever itself, either end of this you will see lock nuts. These can be loosened and the connecting rod adjusted, then tighten up to lock nuts again.
This will bring the lever up and down...on an SV! have a closer look and im sure it will be similar, if not the same! Last edited by Tomtoms; 10-02-09 at 03:07 PM. Reason: to change spelling! |

Re: quick q :D
It's the same set up as the SV.
You can also undo the bolt that holds the selector onto the outlet shaft and move the lever up or down. Usualy a 10mm bolt. |
