2022 Kawasaki Vulcan 1700 Vaquero ABS Clutch

Clutch

The motorcycle is equipped with a hydraulically operated clutch that requires no adjustment except fluid level and clutch operation inspection each day before riding the motorcycle in accordance with the Periodic Maintenance Chart.

Clutch Operation Inspect
If the clutch lever play becomes excessive and the motorcycle creeps or stalls when shifted into gear, there is probably air in the clutch system and it must be bled out by an authorized Kawasaki dealer.

Fluid Level Inspection

• With the clutch fluid reservoir held horizontally, the clutch fluid level must be kept above lower level lines, next to the gauge.
• If the clutch fluid level is lower than the lower level line, check for fluid leaks in the clutch line, and fill the clutch fluid reservoir to the upper-level line.

NOTE
Use the same fluid as is used in the brakes and keep the same requirements mentioned in the “Brakes” section.

A. Clutch Fluid Reservoir
B. Lower Level Line
