I took the risk and purchased these brake/clutch levers on fleabay, my concerns were are they shite and would i ever get them as they were Hong Kong Fooey specials
Well they arrived yesterday and after a quick inspection i was well impressed , after 20 minutes both were fitted onto the bike with very little effort .
The only problem i have is the clutch lever is on maximum adustment and could do with a little more leverage to engage the clutch properly Is there a way of adjusting the clutch except on the lever? Thoughts please

sounds to me like you still have air in the system,ive kinda got them lever and have no probs..bleed the system to make sure thier is no air in the line,then the little nipple at the top can hold alot of air regardless how much you bleed the line.just crack it open slightly and pull in the lever slowly,close the nipple then release the lever and bump a few times..this then should help.
if you are still having probs with the clutch engageing,then you need to start looking at the slave cyclinder!
