I recently purchased a low mileage 2000 R1100rt to supplement my 2005 R1150rt.. you know to split up the miles (I love the 5 speed vs the 6) Anyway the clutch was a little out of adjustment and I adjusted it to around 6mm play at the end of the lever and it seems perfect. I am now reading the threads here and they all state to have 12mm between the knurled adjuster and the lock ring. I have about 14mm. My question is. Why you are not to adjust the clutch at the lever? After all there are loads of threads and why must you adjust it at the rear of the transmission instead? Am I doing damage by adjusting the play at the knurled end of the lever?
