    Default Adjustable reach clutch lever

    The VN900 comes with an adjustable reach hydraulic brake lever but a non-adjustable reach cable clutch lever. I have modified my VN900 clutch lever to allow me to adjust the lever in closer to the bar.

    There is a tab on the clutch lever that comes down to activate the safety lock-out switch. I drilled a hole through this tab that lines up with the alloy block holding the safety switch. [First you need to back-off the cable adjusters so you have plenty of slack in the clutch cable.] I then tapped a thread and fitted a small allen screw with a nut and adjusted it so that it brought the clutch lever in to the bar about the same amount as having the brake lever on notch #4. A bit of lock-tight on the nut should stop things from vibrating loose. Then adjust the cable adjusters to take up the slack.
