   Hi, recently bought a saxo furio, and the clutch bites quite high, its not slipping though. could an adjustment on the cable fix this?

   Yes, slacken the cable a little by undoing the lock nut then undoing the adjuster nut, then tighten the lock nut.

   No, don't tension the cable, this will make it worse. As BOB C says slacken the cable a bit.

   Yup, it will stop your left knee hitting your nose when you change gear...
