“G” crankshaft endplay

[CP1]

Does it make any difference setting the crankshaft endplay, if the clutch is engaged or disengaged?

Thanks

YES

Shouldn't. The end play is controlled at the left main bearing. The pulley just floats on the shaft and lock to the drive disc if engaged it still floats with the crankshaft. Unless the clutch is Fed up in some way.

If you engage the clutch, you can gently use the clutch lever to work the crankshaft right and left within the limits of the endplay. Bump the lever forward and back easily without releasing the clutch.
