I have a Harley shovel chopper with an open primary and clutch. Problem is this, all of the sudden the travel length in the clutch cable is too long. It was fine and now all of the sudden the travel is too long and when I hook it up to the clutch release arm it is too long to engage the clutch even when it is adjusted all the way out. I have also noted that after some riding, the clutch will go out of adjustment and the clutch adjustment screw in the middle of the clutch has to be readjusted. Any ideas what happened or has my throwout bearing gone out.

Throwout bearing is probably laying at the bottom inside the kicker cover on the trany If it's the newer style (washer/bearing/washer/clip ) you might be right

 

And there are those that like the newer style but I am not one. Convert back to the older one. Means new pushrod and bearing but think it is worth the investment
