You can't really see that fork in there... well, maybe you can. Don't remember. But in my case, the pedal would gradually get more and more play until I couldn't totally disengage the clutch. I'd have to adjust it every week or so.

Finally I got fed up with it, and re-worked all the linkage bushings (I thought that was where the problem lied), re-adjusted it perfectly... stepped once on the clutch and *snap*. And then there was nothing. It doesn't take much bending of that fork before it breaks.

But...if you havn't even tried to adjust things yet, I'm sure thats not teh problem. You quickly find the slop in the daylight and with a fresh set of eyes..
