K7/K8 slipper clutch, any adjustment?

You can also adjust the wave springs behind the basket.

Is there a adjustment range on the lifter pins, or do I just guess? Anybody found a setup that works well?

I'm coming off a ZX-6R which had a excellent slipper clutch, if I can get anything near that on my K7 I'd be very happy with it.

Thanks.

I just replaced my clutch in my bike. I called kws to ask about the adjustments for the pins. this is what he told me.

Turn them in till you feel a very slight resistance. Then back it out 2 full turns and tighten the lock down nut. He also said that is just a base adjustment and to try it out then adjust it to my liking. After you set the base setting and try it if you need more slipping then turn the pins in less slipping turn them out. If you turn them in to far you will slip under power as well. Also make sure all the pins are set as close to the same as you can get them.

I did search....must have not used the magic word.

Thanks guys.

That is in the 05/06 sub forum :hammer. How do you expect him to find it in the 07/08 sub forum. :dunno

:flipoff Good job at being an ass hat :flipoff

Thanks for helping to prove the point that the fourm split was a bad ideal.

I searched as well before the forum split and didnt find anything about adjusting the 07 and up only 05/06. That is why I called kws to ask them.

allright, mine slipped under break in when I first got the bike. The problem "resolved itself" with a few miles but, when I tried synthetic oil, it returned. From this it looks like I can adjust it externally with just cover off. I was sure I'd have to pull the clutch to do this. Good info this. The FSM isn't exactly clear on this point.

Nevermind.

You can adjust them through the "plug" hole in the clutch cover. Adjust one then turn the motor over a little till you can adjust the next one and so on. Or you can remove the clutch cover and do it that way.

Right already did it, took 15 minutes. Took them out a bit further than the recommendation and we'll see how it works when I ride it later in the year.

Hey fuck face.... I just typed in slipper adjustment in the fucking search box... and BINGO... up it comes.... there's no difference in adjusting it... had you done a bit of searching before you spewed off you would have found that this has been quoted numerous times in the 07 forum as well....
Thanks for helping to prove the point that you're a frigging moron, but somehow I think you already know that......

forgot to mention this one too..... in the GENERAL FORUM

Try running the pins at 2 to 2 1/4 turns out. When you screw the pins in after loosening the lock nuts, just screw them in until you feel resistance, then back them out 2 to 2 1/4 turns. Turn them in to slip more, turn them out to slip less
