Guys,
When I got my harley in 2008 I was a mechanical idiot. Now I do all the maintenance including the brake pads. Bought a lot of tools since then and even have a lift.
This stuff does not come easy to me. I am usually a little afraid that I am gonna brake something and I proceed very carefully.But once I learn it it is a piece of cake next time.
I tired to do the clutch lube for the first time and when I went to remove the C clamp underneath the clutch hanlde it was very frustrating. It is in a hard place to work from below and my pliers could not grab it. How do I do this?
Also, since I have your attention, do I need to loosen the clutch adjuster on the cable to be able to losen the clutch cable at the handle? Thanks

Just so's you know, the retaining clip sits in a groove and it can be spun around so that if you think the two holes are in a tight spot, spin it until it's where you want it. Then you can get the small snap ring pliers up into the holes. Sears has a great pair of reversible ones for internal and external snap rings.
