Turn the adjuster so that the clutch
lever will have the specified free
play.
WARNING
Excess clutch cable play could
prevent
clutch
disengagement
and cause a crash resulting in
serious injury or death. When ad-
justing the clutch cable, be sure
the upper end of the outer cable
is fully seated in its fitting so that
it doesn't slip into place later and
create excessive cable play.
•
If it cannot be done, adjustment of
the clutch free play should be done
by an authorized Kawasaki dealer.
NOTE
○
After the adjustment is made, start
the engine and check that the clutch
does not slip and that it releases
properly.

Drive Chain Lubrication
Lubrication is necessary after riding
through rain or on wet roads, or any
time that the chain appears dry.
Use a lubricant for sealed chains to
prevent deterioration of chain seals. If
the chain is especially dirty, clean it us-
ing a cleaner for sealed chains follow-
ing the instructions supplied by the
chain cleaner manufacturer.
•
Apply lubricant to the sides of the
rollers so that it will penetrate to the
rollers and bushings. Apply lubricant
to the seals so that the seals will be
coated with lubricant. Wipe off any
excess lubricant.
