New boys questions
Hello there. I have a 2002 XT 600e. The clutch is not clearing as good as it should, as the bike has only done 13000 miles I doubt if the plates are wornout. I am thinking that the adjustment can also be altered in the engine ( behind the casings ) This bike has a lever operated rod which enters the r/h casing vertically from top of casing, the cable has very little freeplay and is at the end of its travel when it bites. I recon that there should be some adjustment on the clutch basket, but I only have a manual for the early models with the clutch cable coming in from the l/h/s of the engine. Has anyone a diagram of the more recent engine design clutch adjustment proceedures please and how it works from this cam / lever - The second question is what is the 6mm theaded hole for on the starter motor casing - Am I missing something in there ??
Thanks for the help. hopefully I can help someone else as I get the knowledge

Parts Cataloge/Workshop Manual for XT600 - Workshop Manual for TT600
Please note that both workshop manuals are huge files (about 140MB) and will take a while to download.
Smokin` Lizard in the Downloads section.
Hope this helps.

OK and thanks for the manual shortcut
The manual is the same, or similar to the discription to one I already have.which is the older version what I want to know is where, or which side casing do I take off to get at the adjustment on the clutch. Does the spindle with the cam on push the clutch basket back ??. most of the old bikes I have worked on have a rod which goes through the engine and pushes the basket open. This seems to have a operation that does it all from one side. I would prefer to only buy a gasket for one side, sods law says if I take the altenator side off to adjust the clutch - it would be the wrong side. Hope this makes sense
thanks
