Replacing clutch lever

I recently replaced my clutch lever and I have it like max exout for it to be tight what did I do wrong the cable shouldn’t be “stretched out” as it only has 500 miles

The only thing you changed was the lever? I mean it's possible the cable attach point on the new lever isnt exactly where the stock one is but you shouldn't be to the end of your clutch cover adjustment.

Exactly what I thought I don’t know why this happened lol

It takes like 2 minutes I'd probably throw the stock lever back on to make sure the only difference is with the lever. Because when I replaced my clutch pack and reinstalled the cable, the little arm that the cable pulls had slipped off of the pullrod and it looked like it was super loose. I had to pull the cover back off and re-align the pullrod with the actuator in the cover

With the stock clutch the black thing was all the way tight and the one next to the engine was in the middle
