How do I adjust a new clutch cable on a 2005 Yamaha v star 1100?
The normal method is once the cable is lubed and located at the engine and lever ends, the cable adjusters at both ends need to be adjusted to give the correct inner cable slack. I normally apply grease to the outer sheath metal crimps (this ensures they move in the adjusters). I then make sure the engine end adjuster has a small amount of clearance between it and the clutch rod. The final adjustments are then made using the cable adjusters at the lever and engine ends. You need to have about 10mm free play at the lever end. Check the manufacturers hand book for the exact dimension. Please make sure you route the cable the same as the old one, also when you pull in the lever it should close quite sharply when released. If it returns slowly or is stiff to operate then recheck cable route and try adding more lube to the inner cable.
I got power to coil nothing comes out of coil
if you have power to the coil the only things that can be wrong are: -
1. the coil is duff.
2. The HT lead is broken.
3. the plug cap is duff, broken.
Remove plug cap and see if there is a spark from the wire core when the lead is placed near the engine/frame.
If it sparks OK replace the plug cap,. no spark means either the coil or the lead are duff. If you can replace the lead try testing again without the cap. Hope this helps.
Starter stays engaged
Sticking "Dog" the part of the starter motor that engages with the stater ring. Remove Starter motor, check the spring on the dog ( the shaft that comes out of the starter motor) its a faff to repair best replace starter motor
Starter stays engaged
It sounds like you may have a bad "Starter Clutch." This is not cheap to replace, so I hope I'm wrong. B)
