My sons scout pops out of second gear. Do you have a video on that?

[@markfoster6667]

Your video did not include the lubrication of the cable barrel at the clutch arm.

[@uzleuz2831]

Good tutorial, thanks for that! Would like to see some more videos like this!

[@Indian_Motorcycle]

Glad it helped! More to come!

[@newjargon1697]

I'll second that.
Thanks for the content , Indian.

Clutch completely blew out on a ride 2 years old… really Indian

[@mem0ryfoam]

Soon as I seen 10mm socket in the required tools.... rip 10mm socket, wherever you are

[@grampageorge3407]

Replace that cable with a Barnett,because the stock cable will break.

[@RetroAnachronist]

Step one: replace crappy stock cable with a Barnett cable.

[@pin75us1]

I have a Barnett stainless steel cable and a Barnett clutch....and I was having the same exact issue with the stock clutch

[@stogie0608]

@@pin75us1 what issue were you experiencing ?

[@kybourbonboy]

Why not tell us which direction of the adjuster (clockwise or counter clockwise) increases or decreases cable slack? It would make it easier instead of letting us climb up and down as we try both directions. Same stupidity in the manual section on drive belt adjustment. Which direction makes the belt move left or right? You'll figure it out, no need for us to save you time and tell you.

[@hohonator]

It tells you in the manual dumbass

[@pin75us1]

Hopefully someone can help me out...I adjust the the clutch lever but once I go riding it loosen up again. Does anyone know what causes this?

[@tuomasekholm284]

pin75us1 The clutch freeplay seems to change when the engine warms up. I wonder if it’s better to adjust the clutch freeplay when the engine is warm or cold?

[@pin75us1]

Tuomas Ekholm good point....I always adjust when it’s cold
