Clutch System
(cont’d)
Servicing Your Honda 61
Integral Cable Adjustment
The integral cable adjuster is used if the cable end
adjuster is threaded out near its limit — or the
correct freeplay cannot be obtained.
1. Turn the cable end adjuster in direction (+)
until it seats lightly and then turn it out five
turns.
2. Loosen the lock nut (1).
3. Turn the integral cable adjuster (2) to obtain
the specified freeplay.
4. Tighten the lock nut. Check the freeplay.
5. Start the engine, pull the clutch lever in, and
shift into gear. Make sure the engine does not
stall and the motorcycle does not creep.
Gradually release the clutch lever and open the
throttle. Your CRF should move smoothly and
accelerate gradually.
If you can’t get proper adjustment, or the clutch
does not work properly, the cable may be kinked or
worn, or the clutch discs may be worn.
Inspect the clutch discs and plates (page 63).
• Check that the clutch lever assembly is
positioned properly (the end of the holder (1) is
aligned with the paint mark (2) on the
handlebar) and the securing bolts are tight.
• Check the clutch cable for kinks or signs of
wear. If necessary, have it replaced.
1. Check for smooth clutch lever operation. If
necessary, lubricate the clutch lever pivot bolt
sliding surface with grease and/or clutch cable
with commercially available cable lubricant.
2. Check the clutch cable for deterioration, kinks,
or damage.
Check for smooth clutch lever operation. If
necessary, apply multi-purpose grease to sliding
surface of the clutch cable ends.

2. Turn the adjuster (2) and remove the clutch
cable (3).
3. Disconnect the clutch cable end from the
clutch lever (4).
4. Thoroughly lubricate the clutch cable end (5)
