ok, got some more ex questions for you.
first off, when ever i turn my handlebars, the steering stem makes a obnoctious (sp) squeek. It comes from the top...just a bearing?? (nevermind that the stem is a little bent)
number 2:
this is the one that just confuses me. ok, i noticed that my clutch lever had a little play eairler today, so i moved that little bolt thing, to adjust the freeplay. Then a half hour later, it was loose again, so i turned it out a little more, then the same thing another half hour. Now it is to the puint that the screw can not go out any farther, and the lever is still very loose. the lever is half way to the bars.
So i pulled the perch apart, and it is worn a little, but not much, so i am going to replace that anyway, but my questoin is did the clutch cable stretch also? that fast? i know i did not overtighten it, cause it was never tight to begin with. also you know that lever where the clutch cable goes into, on top of the case, could a spring not be bringing it all the way back???
i am a little lost, so any help is good.
lastly what do you think is the sweetest graphics kit for a 400ex, not to expensive also.
oh yeah, what is a good clutch perch to buy???
