Question Friction Zone

Where is your "Friction Zone" on your bike?

I've just gotten curious because mine is ALMOST ALL THE WAY OUT before I feel any grab from the engine. (It's actually quite annoying sometimes.)

What about you?

I'm going to adjust it soon. I'm still learning about bikes though, so I'm taking it slow about doing anything to the bike. I just don't want to mess anything up that can't be fixed easily because the bike is my ONLY means of transportation to work.

Why was this moved to pre-gen?

Your profile says you have a 2007, is that correct? "Pre-gens" on this site are from '86 - '07. "New-gens" are the 2008+ models.

That's correct. I just thought that this post related to pre-gen and new-gen.

No worries. Just curious.

I adjusted my wifes pregen to catch about 2 inch out. So it's quite easy to ride the friction zone for low speed stuff with the "finger bumper" method.
