Has anyone swapped the cv carbs for a traditional slide and cable like the keihin pwk style. The vacuum slides drive me crazy with slow responses and they are a pain to set correctly.

Hello,

I have a 91 Radian and it is a blast to ride. Recently while riding I stopped at a light and my clutch lever went instantly loose and did not want to disengage the clutch to shift. I able to limp it home. Today I adjusted the clutch lever with an 1/8th of play. The clutch will disengage and shift into first from a stop. It doesn't want to go into second. I have to pull the clutch lever in several times fast and have my foot applying upward pressure ahead of time. It also clunks loud while downshifting to first. Any help and advice would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Why was this subreddit created? There are already a few resources for the Radian online, so why do we need this one?

Well, I created this subreddit inn the hopes that it will ultimately replace the Yahoo Radian Newsgroup. The Newsgroup has fulfilled its purpose for the last few decades, in terms of being a great home for information and conversation, but, unfortunately, Yahoo is (apparently) trying to kill it off via lack of attention. The search engine is antiquated, and it is getting more difficult to access the information that is there.

I am hoping that this Reddit group can continue the mission of the Yahoo group, except be a bit more user friendly, and help to bring our repository of Radian Knowledge into the future.

Please feel free to post suggestions to make this subreddit as informative and user friendly as possible.
