There's no linkage on the Tiger. The lever is attached directly to the splined shaft.
I agree with Graeme, the clutch lever set up on the Tiger is a bit cheap and poorly thought out.
The gearbox on Tigers tend to be a bit notchy, with a tendency to baulk. As everybody mentions, you need to have the clutch lever adjusted correctly, with the final drive chain the loose side of manafacturers specification. Most people reckon on at least 60mm.
Owners say the gearboxes improve with mileage. This might be so, or perhaps we get used to them and change our riding style to suit?
