Re: Rear brake light & woodcraft rearsets

I'd adjust the clutch per andy auger's clutch mantra (here http://forum.svrider.com/showthread.php?t=54588) but feeling some resistance or drag like that is common... I wouldnt worry about it too much, as long as you've already adjusted the clutch properly.

cold oil provides more resistance than warm oil.
