My clutch has been working just fine. I have had no problems at all. It is fairly new (installed new billet basket, barnett plates, and hub a couple of thousand miles ago). I just swapped the stock levers for some new short billet levers. I installed and adjusted the clutch pump activator pin on the new lever to exactly match the original lever before I installed the new lever on the bike. The clutch now doesn't fully engage. I experimented with changing the clutch pump acutator pin length. That didn't help. I then figured that somehow I must have gotten some air in the pump or the line. I have bled the fluid many times both at the master cylinder and the slave cylinder in an effort to make sure that I got any bubbles out of the system. The clutch pull is rock solid. The clutch plates move instantaneouly when the lever is pulled. Therefore, I deduce that I don't have any air bubbles in the system. The clutch still doesn't fully engage. I assume that this means that the clutch isn't moving far enough out when the lever is pulled to disengage the transmission. I, for the life of me, can't figure out why I am having the problem after simply installing a new lever. I did reinstall the OEM lever with the exact original settings. The clutch still will not fully engage. What am I missing?
P.S.: I have searched and read everything that I can find relating to clutch issues on DML. I have also consulted my shop manual. I still can't figure out what the problem is.
