Default Clutch Prob. ?

My buddies bike(2001 Deuce) the clutch is sticking? It will engage but it will not disengage. Anyone got any ideas?
He tried to adjust the cable, still the same thing.
I was thinking it was the clutch going out and not the cable. Just thought I would ask.

Let me know if you know.

Mike

Try clutch adj, not cable adj. Omners manual says how to do it. It is very simple.

Also look at fluid level in the primary. To much fluid and the clutch will drag.

Hope this helps.

In addition to Breaknbad's reply,consider the condition of the primary fluid. You/he may need to change it. Use the proper type. Synthetics work great.

If you have to open the primary, check the clutch linkage & spring, etc.

Got it fixed and it was the clutch plates warped. Thanks for all the help.
