Having some trouble with the clutch on my 98' hornet and have no idea whats wrong. The clutch is fine till the bike is warm, then once warm if i pull the clutch in to stop at lights or anything, the bike still wants to go and if i dont let it, it stalls out. I've checked the cable, changed the oil/oil filter already, anyone know whats up with it?

Have you adjusted the cable properly?

Yeah it seems all adjusted right, when the bike is cold its spot on. Its only been doing this since someone decided to tamper with it outside my work

Just to be clear, you need 10-20mm of free play measured at the end of the clutch lever. Coarse adjustment at the engine end, fine adjustment at the lever. Thumbs Up
