Ever forgot whether you fitted the ball or not??
There is an easy way to find out without even removing the clutch push rod...

Just use a steel rule to measure how far the pushrod sticks out from the engine casing. If it measures approx 39mm, you have won the "no ball" piece prize! If the ball is fitted, it should measure around 46mm.

Handy information to have, thanks. Are there any other clues without even taking the cover off? If you were viewing a bike for sale for example, would the cable adjustment at the clutch lever have to be way at one end if the ball were missing or wouldn't that be enough to result in a working clutch of sorts??

If the adjusting screw would go far enough, doubt you could get much of a working clutch anyway.
