well i got my vh going today after we had the motor in peices, i was happy to hear it run but when i went to drive it the clutch just didnt wanna play.

we had the gearbox off to put the new clutch in and am 110% sure the clutch is in right because the last one worked and i put it in the same.

ive adjusted the cable right out, but the pedal is still sitting heaps close to the floor but the cable is still connected.

does anyone know why my clutch would'nt be working? im hoping the motor doesnt have to come back out.

cheers, Brad

The cables stretch, but i wouldnt think it would be that, it would stretch over time more so.

There's no pressure on it at all, ya just tap it a fraction and it's at the floor...but yeah I rekon it's not connected right at one of the ends....I doubt it would stretch over a week of it being out.
