My clutch cable pulls the clutch lever slightly in when getting on the throttle. Is this normal or is this the clutch dragging? |

That's kinda normal. If the clutch is dragging, it will always make a loud clunk when engaging a gear from neutral and will tend to make the bike creep forward when in gear with the clutch lever all the way pulled in. If this is what's happening, it may just need adjustment at the handlebar end. |

"My clutch cable pulls the clutch lever slightly in when getting on the throttle." Can you please clarify? Wouldn't the cable need to push on the lever to get it to move "in" towards the hand-grip? How the heck are you noticing what the clutch lever is doing as you are getting on the throttle? |
