Nothing to do with me, it's your bike.

If you are adjusting your clutch cable start at the clutch end and check whether you have the correct angle (about 85 degrees) between the arm and the cable, then work your way back towards the lever.

Hall, as johnboy said, it may need adjustment under the sprocket cover. If you dont want to touch it (its faily easy but you can hash it up), bring it to selkent tommorow, or soho friday

Oh and remeber to back it out on the lever if your doing it under the sprocket cover.

Don't bother the dealer - he'll charge a silly sum for a job I'm sure someone can do for you in 5 minutes (and you'll learn how to do it for them too)
I'd take the offer of a SELKent or Soho meet!

There's no need really. You have people on here offering to help, why pay the dealer a vast sum for nothing?

Can you get it inot gear and change gear when you ride?

if so do what the guys above are saying. Let someone who knows do it and show you how. Nothing like being able to add a number 3 to the list of thing you learnt today.

3 - being how to fix what you buggered up.

believe me, if you plan to ride a bike for a long time its best to learn these little things as you go along and not relly on the dealer to extarct the urine...and your cash... out of you all the time.

Your bike, your choice

ok friday it is then i am counting on you guys to gide me through. cant bear the thought of paying more money out. will ride it as little as possible until then
