So I need some help here. My clutch started making a groaning noise earlier today leaving from a light in first gear, and feeling like it was slipping like the clutch is starting to go. This only happened when the bike was above 220 degrees.
Later that day I had the clutch hydraulic fluid flushed and new fluid put in. At the same time I had the Oberon Clutch slave cylinder installed.
After this, riding home I noticed the clutch foot lever was hard to manipulate and the bike will not find neutral. Almost feels like you are trying to shift when you dont use the hand levers at all and you havnt matched the rev's correctly. You need to apply alot of pressure to get the foot lever to budge and once it does it makes a clunking noise as it falls into the next gear.
My question is, since I know the clutch is starting to wear, and I installed the slave cylinder today which of these things would cause this? Would a worn clutch make the foot lever hard to manipulate or is this a product of the aftermarket slave cylinder?
Thanks for the help
Nothing is free in this world, if you put on a bigger slave like the Oberon to get a easier pull on the handlebar you get lesser push on the clutch. Try to move your handle away from the handlebar (if it is adjustable)
[beer] that seems to help quite a bit. Thanks :-)
