My clutch seems to slip a little mostly in 6th gear , but it slips a little more than expected during hard full throttle shifts in the upper gears.
I have proper free play in the lever/cable, but I notice when the clutch is engaged the actuator moves a couple mm past the adjustment mark on top of the case.
Is there a stop on the actuator arm that would prevent the clutch from getting full spring pressure?
I don't mind pulling the clutch cover and adjusting the clutch, if that will fix the problem.
Or is it more likely that the clutch is worn/ springs are weak allowing a small amount of slipping?
I bought this bike used and have put maybe 8 or 10 hours on it, and so far it has run solid, and isn't leaking any fluids from the carb, case halves or seals, shock valves, etc., but I don't know what kind of shape the clutch is in.
I am going to guess and say the basket is grooved based on the drag I get when it is obviously released and then some. I wouldn't be too surprised if the friction plates were about shot, or even the whole thing was held together with the wrong bolts. Lol
Thanks in advance
