my clutch is starting to slip so just wondering what needs replacing in the clutch. i dont know alot abou them. do u just replace the clutch plates or what? thanks guys

 

Plates and springs.

 

Have you tried adjusting it?

 

what do i adjust

 

theres an adjustment next to the line where it meets the perch, and theres an adjustment for in the middle of the line about where the back of you fender meets the line (can you tell im bad at explaining things?). adjust those till the clutch feels good and youll be in business. i have almost 18K on my plates and there fine so far.

 

The adjustment screw controls engagement point, not actually pressure applied. If the clutch is slipping in higher gears, then it is time for a new one. Replacing one should be really easy. I have taken mine out before, but I have not replaced one yet.

 

Wow! What caused the clutch to go bad? 14,300 miles and if feels like the day I bought the bike. Confused

 

Riding the clutch??

It's a little harder to ride the clutch on a bike than a car, but who knows.

Another viable solution...clutchless shifting!

i actually do alot of clutchless shifting, feels just as smooth as using the cluthc and u can quick shift. but what its doing is when i accelerate fast and im gettin to the end of the rpm range 8000 rpm's or so it kinda surges and slips
