Want this question answered?
where does the clutch cable go from the pedal?? my clutch snapped earlier
You have a broken clutch.
A reverse clutch setup is when the clutch assembly is normally in the "release" or "free" mode when at rest, as opposed to the usual "normally-engaged" arrangement. In other words, the spring is pushing to dis-engage the clutch and pedal pressure is required to connect the engine to the rest of the drive train. In a normal automotive clutch system, the driver has to push in the pedal to release the clutch, then let go of the pedal to engage it.
If it has a hydraulic clutch, it is probably the slave cylinder. You could still have pedal but the slave is letting the fluid past the seals. Have someone watch the slave while the clutch pedal is pushed.
First you need to make sure that all the air is bleed out of the slave cyinder. Then to adjust the point at which the clutch will engage, tighten or loosen the pushrod nut. It will be near the clutch pedal on a little rod between the firewall and pedal (the pushrod).
Squeeze in the clutch lever. To go from Neutral to 1st, you squeeze in the clutch and on most bikes press down on the shift pedal. To get to 2nd through 6th, squeeze the clutch, and lift firmly up on the pedal. Lift up as far as it will go, otherwise you will have shifted into Neutral.
Could be a broken clutch fork, linkage, or cable depending on the setup.
There is no adjustment on this clutch. The clutch is hydrolic, you may need to bleed it.
It could possibly be your clutch pedal height. I had to fix the problem in my car, had the same thing happening. Go to your local shop or look up on the interweb and find out how to adjust the clutch pedal height.
Unless you have a "fixie" there's a small one-way clutch hidden in the rear hub. This clutch engages when the pedals are being pushed in the right direction, but will allow the bike to "freewheel", or "coast" when the power is coming from the other direction.
There is normally a second starter-position solenoid under the clutch pedal. It probably is not getting contacted when you step on the pedal.
If it has a hydraulic clutch I'd suspect a leak in the master or slave cylinder. If it isn't a hydraulic clutch I'd check the linkage.
