first of all
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA
as far as clutch adjustment there is a minor adjustment knob on the lever
major adjustment down by the clutch cover. just turn the knob until you see the slack go out of the cable.
more than likely though slack cable isnt the problem. you probably burned you clutch. and it will need to be replaced. you abuse the bike. it stops working.
as far as the no start. does the fuel pump prime at all when you turn the key

when you turn on the key
you should hear a whine then a click then nothing
that is the fuel pump.
if you dont hear that then we can start looking into the no start

If there is something(s) seriouslly wrong with it, I hope that you have some extra money in the bank because Honda won't cover that. I guarantee it.

Hey, man, no worries. . .a clutch replacement is not rocket science. Start by picking up a Clymer manual. It gives step by step instructions for do it yourselfers, and it's almost as much fun working on your bike as buying it. That guy is right, abuse will not be covered under warranty, so start learning how to do it yourself, unless you want pay for the labor!

It is possiable that you smoked the clutch, but bikerboy is right changing out the clutch is not hard at all. If you can turn a wrench on a car you can do a clutch on the bike. with a few tools and a stand to change out the plates should take no more then 45 min to 1 hr. We were at the track this summer and I smoked mine and a buddy of mine changed it out in about 20 min. I did not even miss a pass.

Don't make a thread asking about what tires you should buy either. Might as well use this thread and cover that as well
