Thanks for the replies. The lever had a preload, It took almost two full turns of the screw to get any free play. I have not had a chance to get it out on the trail yet.

I will have time this weekend to do some inspections, I do not think the bike has had enough ride time to have a burned up clutch. The parts are the main reason I bought the bike, I am looking for an alternative to my 200EXC for a trail bike. Thanks

Hi all; New here as I just bought my first trials bike, it is a 2013 Explorer set up in trials form with only a few tanks ran through it, so it has sat around and been ridden very little. After buying it I took it for a ride, had some clutch drag when it started, I road it up a fire road one mile to the trail head, as I proceeded up the trail a quarter mile the clutch faded to nothing, as in the bike sitting in gear idling. Back at the van I let it cool for five minutes then I had full clutch again, rode around the parking area and the clutch faded again. Back home I found the oil was over filled, so I drained it put fresh oil to the proper level. A few days later I went back to the trail head and had the same results. Fluid in the master cylinder is fine, I have not had time to pull the side cover for inspection. A friend suggested checking the plunger in the lever. Any other Ideas? Thanks
