Woo! Thank you! After experimenting with the adjuster near the lever, I wasn't able to get a result I was happy with. I started playing with the other end, and I found the right spot in no time She's now easy to shift, and the clutch fully engages when I pull it. Use this video to manage the lever-side of the cable:
Took at look at the headlight assembly... I'll have to completely take off the two front fairings to access it. Not a big deal, but it'll take time. I'll see if I can tackle that today after running errands. How can I tell what type of spark plug it is? I'll probably just take a picture and post. Found this video: Those all sound like the right way to do things? Last edited by TheBeege; 09-27-2014 at 03:25 PM. Reason: Huh, YouTube videos are embedded. Nifty, but blegh, formatting. |

Actually, as far as spark plugs go, one of your own photos in your intro post tell you what kind of spark plug to get. On the right swingarm, there is a sticker which states "Vehicle emission control information Zongshen Inc" and on there it will tell you what kind of plug your bike needs and the gap to make it. Even if the plug looks ok, it couldn't hurt to start with brand new ones. On my bike, it is VERY easy to get to the plug, but be careful pulling on the spark plug 'boot' since if you break something, a Zongshen replacement might not be as easy to find vs. finding a common Honda or Suzuki.
Is this a single cylinder or a twin cylinder? You might need two spark plugs...

If you look at the emissions sticker in his photo, you can almost make out "D8EA" which most of these seem to use.
