How to Install Adjustable Short Levers (Clutch+Brake) on Yamaha R6!

________
In this "How To" video, I install new short adjustable clutch and brake levers on my 2014 Yamaha R6. Straight forward and easy install for the most part. The most difficult part is unseating the clutch cable.*
Note: If either side seems too tight or too loose, adjusting the bolt and nut where the levers pivot around is probably your solution. Can't make them too tight, as they won't release the levers fully back out, and can't make them too loose, as the levers will be wobbly and loose as well.
If you have any questions, please feel free to drop them in the comment below, and I will answer to the best of my knowledge.
Hope it helps! As always, thanks for watching. Ride safe out there, and stay vigilant!

BEER ME?
Lots of people say the channel has helped them in some way, be it the "How To" videos (mostly,) or other random episodes. I constantly get messages from people saying they'd love to buy me a beer. That's awesome! I love beer. If you're one of those people, feel free to add to the beer fund!

Good video Block! I admire your simple hands on repair/Install on your videos. With KZfaq today, anyone could pretty much do any repair/install if you have the tools, AND the COURAGE to just do it. Delboy's Garage has a host of hands on videos as well. Still liking those BLOCKHEAD stickers my friend! Keep up the great work, very nice channel.....

What if when you push the clutch lever and the bike doesn’t move forward? Bike shifts good and can put it into neutral. But when I try to leave it in first gear and press on the clutch to move the bike forward it’s extremely difficult to do so?

@@brianrivera846 Not sure what OP did, but I would invest new levers made by a company you can actually reach by phone. Doesn't have to break the bank, but 35 bucks for a set is way to low for good design and manufacturing. Corners had to get cut somewhere 😐
