its the same bro,whether you are using mx or classic,its the same broand one more thing,no clutch levers were placed on the right side.the clutch adjuster located in the crank were on the rightside (classic) and left side (mx)if i am not mistaken
if you get what im saying,on the left upper fairing where the clutch lever is located,by removing the headlight with fairing,you can adjust the clutch lever,

Is it necessarily to adjust the clutch using that lever u are saying? in my point of view its the same with adjusting the nut just above the crank case or is it different?if you are nearer,you can drop by my place,ill show you how to adjust the clutch...i can help you with that(then buy some of racingboy products)

may be the same..
bro the levers what im refering about is the one youll always squeeze when using clutch and handbrakes,thats the lever bro

yep i know. but its too much hassle if i need to remove the front fairing to adjust clutch, if i can just adjust it using the 2 nuts above the crankcase. if its different well its worth giving a try.!may be the same..

if you are using stock levers, the easiest way to adjust your clutch is through you crankcase.
Here's the tutorial:
To adjust, first turn turn screw nut no.1 counter clockwise to 360 degrees as many as you needed to reach your potential adjust. then turn screw nut no.2 counter clockwise to lock it up. pictures shown below.

one question bro? would i still be able to shift smoothly in idle ? ill squeeze the clutch lever then shift gears on idle.. when i do that now somthing is hitting or i feel hard shifting before the gear shifts... but when im running aroung 30kph its all smooth.. i reaaly dont know if they just fit 5gears to MX that suppose to be 4gears only thats why its not that smooth...

one thing that i love about the sniper classic is its shifting everything is smooth.. but with my new sniper MX.. im disappointed by the way its shifts.. i dont know if they just fit the 5 gears on it without engineering it... just for marketing strategy... ill try to adjust the clutch once again hope it solve my problem.

on my experienced bro sometimes that's normal especially when the engine is not yet hot. what I always do is pump the clutch 5 times before shifting on idle and it goes smoothly
Noob question here sirs,
with your ALL STOCK sniper mx,
what's your gear shifting according to your mileage?
example:
Gear 1= 0-20km/h
Gear 2= 20-50km/h
i tried this with an all stock sniper mx:
Gear 1= 0-30km/h
and i experienced "tok" sound while shifting to 2nd gear.
but 30-60km/h in 2nd gear to 3rd gear there's no problem at all.
is it possible that i over revved?
TIA.

you cant over rev all stock sniper due to cdi rev limit. That normally sounds due to the shifting gears
so would it be safe to say that
gear1 to gear2 = 0-30km/h is over revved for my all stock sniper mx?

i dont thinks thats over reving.. try to check your chains maybe its loosen.. that happens to me when i got a loosen chain... the chain hits the rubber in the swing arm.. when shifting.Noob question here sirs,

what im saying sir is that there is no such thing as over rev on stock sniper using stock cdi. you can only over rev when you use racing cdiso would it be safe to say that
gear1 to gear2 = 0-30km/h is over revved for my all stock sniper mx?

bro buko0 how can you over rev with/using stock cdi??its not possible though it has a limiter IHMO
IHMOi am NEW to mcs so i dont know if i am over revving already or not,bro buko0 how can you over rev with/using stock cdi??its not possible though it has a limiter
my primary concern IS that when i shift from gear1 to gear2 = 0-30km/h
i hear a knocking sound, but when i shift from gear1 to gear2 = 0-20km/h
it doesn't happen.
so i'm wondering IF my gear1 to gear2 = 0-30km/h IS already over revving.

update! adjusting the clutch doesn't solve the problem, any one know a mechanic that can help me out? seems like engine needs to be too warm for everything to go smooth.. every cold start shifting is bad. any solutions to this?
