The clutch just seems soft. It's like 1st gear was not very responsive but 2nd gear was fine. The yellow shoe is definetely being sanded. I wore a yellow shoe out in 5 tanks.

So you decrease the gap as you increase the tension (preload)? This makes the clutch more responsive? If so, how far do you go on both?

Thanks,
