    K1300S Clutch Fine Adjustment

    Lee, I just saw a post you made on the BMW/MOA site in January of 2025 re: clutch adjustment. It is informative, but it looks daunting. I think I'll leave mine alone for now.

    Here's the link. I don't know if I was right or wrong

      Lee, you are absolutely correct. "That knob does not change the engagement point. It's more of a comfort adjustment." And the K1200S / K1300S does have those adjusters.

      Also, the guy on the MOA site that goes into photo details on how to adjust the ball stud, is wrongo. Adjusting that part of the lever (assuming you get past BMW's overzealous use of red Loctite) does nothing for the engagement point. It will add a lot of slop to the lever, or remove all play and damage the clutch. I'd stay away from adjusting the ball stud.

      FWIW, if it's a K1300S or 1969 mach 1 Mustang I probably know the answer but I went downstairs and took a photo anyway. Click image for larger version  Name:	1-K1300S.jpg Views:	1 Size:	69.2 KB ID:	69288

          AhHA! Thanks, guys. You're the best. Jargon put on some fancy after-market levers. I like them fine. They have 5 or 6 clickable settings. I am on the most extreme one and wondered if there was any further adjustment possible. I am a "sufficer" and will leave "well enough" alone.
