PS bend the lutch cable holder thing with a big *** philips screwdriver so the cable doesn't rub itself to failure.

 

way ahead of yea, i just grabbed some last night then when i got to the line i realized they were aluminum and went and grabbed some steel. i just use a bit the size of the rivet cuz they usually run a 1/16 or so small.

 

sounds like your on the ball

 

for once in my life :YEAH

 

on f4i you can go a hair longer then 9mm
1/2", or 12.5mm

 

I had them add 10mm and I had to hammer it past the frame.

 

correction...

It's NOT the same, it's better... and for this reason:

An easy pull lever doesn't make the force on the cable or clutch arm any smaller, it's just making it feel less heavy but the stress/force on the cable/clutch arm are still the same.

HOWEVER, when you make the clutch arm longer, the force on the cable and clutch arm WILL be less!! and therefore it will be better for your cable, and it will feel even softer and easyer then with an easypull system.

J has spoken

 

Truth! For the same reason it's better to go up more inthe rear sprocket and no go down in the front. Less stress on the chain.

 

lol....right j has spoken so all you people still using your easy pulls just throw them in the trash

 

xcept for us with no room.. and no good uncles who won't do it for us

 

or u could have a weld break mid coaster but the likelyness of either one happening are one in a million, especially if u use red lock tight...

i have to say kj, nice mod but ur still ugly and ur girlfriend still dresses u funny hahahaahaha yeah i said it miss what u gonna do about it

 

may be....I know the lever kinda "flops" about a 1/8"-1/4" before you start to pull it back..not alot, but I figured that was sufficient for slack

 

anybody have problems with cable length after doing this? my housing is short and cable is to long. i adjusted it all the way in and out and it just wont cooperate.

 

If your cable is too LONG after doing this mod, you're definitely hitting the crack pipe!


If anything, your cable would be too short when you make a longer clutch arm, not too long..



Look at your adjusters again, you definteily have an adjuster all the way lose or something


Mine was exactly 1/2" longer (12.5mm) and it hit the frame, but I just used a screw driver to bend it down to go past the frame, then used the screw driver to bend it up to clear the motor lol...

Ghetto I know, but 1/2" is the absolute MAX you can go.. If I woulda went 1 or 2 more mm I doubt it woulda bent far enough without dropping the motor











edit: OH ya and the clutch arm + MSR is definitely DOPE!

Everytime I get on my friends bike with ONLY a MSR, I'm like "damn that clutch is hard"

Then I hop on my f4i with the 1/2 mod + a msr, and its suppa butta!

 

I dont have a clue what you asked.....all I see is ur avatar and I keep thinking how much I want to taste a piece of Fruit Stripe gum!!!

 

i fixed it on my lunch break. turns out i'm just an r-tard. lol. the way i riveted in was at a weird angle. its work. pretty effn dope, its got a good snap to it.:YEAH

idunno who she is but i'd marry her. pending the face of course, can't always live in the dark. haha

 

This actually just did that ot my cable...

 

seems like bolting it would be a better way to go

 

whats te longest i can go a 05 636?

 

Nice one KJ for this info......

just thought id post up.... i done this mod on my F4i (bolt up version) and you can have it as long as you want! i just took clutch casing off and made it 18mm long but when you put back together you have to bolt on the extension part after the clutch casing is back on! that way the arm clears the frame. its a little bit tricky but i used 8mm hex bolts instead of alan head cap bolts like KJ used and it works beautiful....

cheers KJ......
