Hey

Try to disengage the clutch Lever with a pair of chanlelocks you about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch should free the wheels. If they dont break free you have a problem. You might need the check the clutch plates make sure they are not burnt or warped ,and in that case you will need to change the oil Use a good four stroke engine oil . TRY AJUSTING IT FIRST THEN LOOK INTO THE OTHER THINGS.GOOD LUCK

it will proabaly work if u buy a new cable but u wont have much adjustment.it seems like the aftermarket clutch perches dont give as much pull on the cable as the stock clutch perch..but im pretty sure a new cable would help there like 14 buck at ur local honda dealer...

As long as the quad dosen't move when its planted on the ground you are ok.

My dad cdale and my banshee both did that. Put it into first and pull in the clutch with it jacked up the tires spun pretty fast. but it wouldn't move when on the ground.


Just make sure your cable has about /-------/ <that much slack. atleast that is what I use and have had no problems. dosen't take much just enough the clutch isn't disengaged when the leve is out.
