I recently put a new motor in my GSX. When I installed it I also put in a new SBR 2500. The clutch doesn't fully disengage when I push the clutch pedal in. The slave cylinder is good and all bleed correctly cause I accidently unhooked it. How do I adjust it to change where it engages. All I found in my factory manual was about messing with the clutch pedal which doesn't seem necessary as it's where it's supposed to be. Any help would be great.
 
Get up under the dash by the pedals. The adjustment is up by the master cylinder. (At least it is on my car...1g.) You have to loosen a nut, then turn a rod. It's hard to explain without seeing it. Just follow the master cylinder and look for something like I'm describing.
 
Ok thanx. I think I read something like that in my service manual. It didn't really make a lot of sense to me until you just explained it tho. Any clue what way I have to turn it? I need it to disengauge sooner. It's kinda dragging now with the clutch all the way pushed in and it fully engauges a few inches off the floor. Just enough so it's difficult to put it in gear. Thanx again.
 
That's the link I was looking for earlier to show you. The VFAQ only has it for 1gs. Good find.
