Clutch Issues, Yamaha MT-125

[jpno5]

Hey guys, parked my bike up for 10mins, came back and went to start my bike and the clutch lever is pretty solid. I did manage to drive it home, literally only a couple of mm movement but enough to change gears.

Any ideas ?

Cheers

Check the adjustment. It's possible someone fiddled with it while you were away from the bike.

will check properly tomorrow, but had a look there and that doesn't seem to be the issue, i backed it off as much as i could, still clutch only goes in a little then its rock hard.

cheers

Sounds like a new clutch cable needed, also is the engine oil level ok?

[jpno5]

The cable is moving albeit not very much, had a quick look at the oil, it's not showing on the dip stick so definitely low, possible engine damage from low oil? Think my last oil change was about 5months ago.

I did drive it like almost 2 miles home, apart from not being able to pull the clutch in it did seem ok, engine sounded ok. And it was fine before I parked up.
