seems right to me on the clutch adjustment i never had a problem finding neutral at all an still could stand a bit more adjusting will do ? to citroanjunkie is what oil was in the bike ,first change should be before ,you ever run the bike ,i also hear that full 100% synthetic should be used till after 500 miles or full break in ,too allow the internals to seat properley,i used 10w40 mortcycle oil sf,though most guys use rottela 15w40 with more zinc i may try at some point myself i would use either one ,plus i am sure many guys use just regular 10w40 too an 20w50 in heat

my problem is finding 5th gear ,i guess couse i am so used to a bike with 50+ hp ,an the low gearing 5th feels like 3rd ,but will work to get all that the hawk can give ,soon this heat up in the NE is terrible
