    What's going on every day for the last week iv had to scrue in the cable on the clutch lever to put the slack back into the thing ill put 10-13mm of slack in it and works fine all day next morning when i hop on it the slack is gone when i started there was about 14mm of thread showing now there is aobut 3 as i had to adjust it agin this morning it is a new clutch and it was sliping before and i find that now that im putting this slack in there ever day it's not sliping haf as much now when i have that play in there it dosent slip or at leaset not enougfh to notice it but at this rate i will run out of cable tommrow i mean i still have threads left on the lower arm but how long will this last

    (new clutch 100miles on it when i started riding it now about 600 on it so id say about the last 250miles iv adjusted it 4 times all the)

    when i say i added slack in the clutch i mean it was auchely holding the leaver tight no slack but not pulling the clutch out

    Does the lever side of the cable adjust? If so - maybe it is tightening there through some unknown phenomenon?

    Maybe the cable jacket is getting longer? This sounds weird - but if it was - then it would explain this.
