FAQs
Will this lever fit my specific dirt bike model?
This is a universal clutch lever designed for all off-road motocross and enduro motorcycles. While it's made to fit most, very minor adjustments to cable routing might be needed on a few specific bike models due to variations in frame or cable length.
Does it come with the cable?
No, this product is for the clutch lever and perch assembly only. It does not include the clutch cable itself.
What is the difference between a 'Long' and standard clutch lever?
A 'Long' clutch lever typically offers a greater range of motion and potentially more leverage than a standard or short lever. The choice often comes down to rider preference, hand size, and riding style.
How do I adjust the clutch cable tension?
The perch includes a built-in cable adjuster. Turn the adjuster barrel to increase or decrease the slack in the clutch cable, changing the point at which the clutch engages. Refer to your motorcycle's manual for the correct amount of free play.
Is installation difficult?
No, it's designed as a bolt-on part for easy installation. Most riders with basic mechanical knowledge and tools can install it themselves.
What is the warranty on this product?
Raceline products are known for their durability. While specific warranty details can vary, Raceline generally stands behind its off-road parts and accessories.
Can I use this lever for street bikes?
This lever is specifically designed and marketed for off-road motocross and enduro motorcycles. It may not be compatible or suitable for street bike applications.
Troubleshooting
Clutch lever feels stiff or difficult to engage
Ensure the clutch cable is properly lubricated and not kinked. Check the cable adjuster; it may need to be backed out slightly. Verify that the lever pivots freely on its mounting point.
Clutch does not fully disengage
Increase the clutch cable slack using the adjuster on the perch. Ensure the clutch cable is correctly routed and not binding. Check for any obstructions preventing the lever from returning fully.
Lever does not return to position smoothly
Inspect the lever pivot area for dirt or debris. Clean and lubricate the pivot point. Ensure the perch clamp bolts are not overtightened, which can restrict movement.
Perch clamp bolts are loose
Tighten the perch clamp bolts securely to the handlebar. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the handlebar or perch.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility:
This Raceline Universal Clutch Lever is designed to fit all off-road motocross and enduro motorcycles. Its universal nature means it should mount to most standard handlebars and clutch cable setups.
Setup:
- Ensure your motorcycle is on a stable surface, ideally with the engine off and in neutral.
- Loosen the clutch cable at the engine case or wherever it attaches.
- Remove the old clutch lever and perch assembly from the handlebar.
- Mount the new Raceline clutch lever and perch assembly onto the handlebar. Tighten the clamp bolts sufficiently to hold the perch in place, but allow for minor adjustment.
- Re-attach the clutch cable to the new lever.
- Use the integrated cable adjuster on the perch to set the initial clutch free play. Refer to your motorcycle's service manual for recommended free play specifications.
- Test the clutch operation carefully before riding. Ensure smooth engagement and disengagement.
Care:
- Periodically clean the lever and perch assembly with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris.
- Check the lever pivot bolt and perch clamp bolts for tightness before each ride.
- Lubricate the clutch cable at the lever end as part of regular motorcycle maintenance.
- Inspect the lever for any signs of damage or wear, replacing if compromised.
