Anyone got the magura hymec set up from OTR? How far does your clutch arm move?

Hi, I've fitted magura hymec on my '09 tenere some 10.000km's ago...

I've noticed shorter movement compared to the original cable one, mine has about 8-9 mm travel. After proper (lever release) adjustment, when put on central stand I've tested engagement by pulling the lever when in 1st gear and rear wheel stopped rotating in seconds.. good enough for me.

Also, I've checked with my mechanic working in yamaha centre and he confirmed that such setting (8-9 mm travel) should be enough. After 10 +k km's of semi-hard ride the bike is absolutely fine.

Anyway, the clutch is light and soft and (as stated by magura) designed to be 'shorter travel/cross style' type of cluch... I prefer it to the cable and am quite happy with mine.

Hope this helps...

Cheers
