Clutch adjustment?

Post by geordie skydiver »

On my 1982 2.0L Aircooled westy, the clutch bite point is really high, the clutch is fine you can come on and off the throttle no problem and tow a trailer and it never slips.

Question is, is there any adjustment to 'lower' the biting point?

Mine was the same till last week.

I did the gearbox imput shaft.

While doing it i pushed the cluch cylinder on the gearbox right in. I don't know why buy my biting point is now about halfway down/up on the pedal.

feels kinda strange after being used to a biting point 1 1/2 inch from the top. I've stalled it a few times forgetting.
