Hey all. I'm newer here. My clutch has started to slip a bit when I throttle fast. Is this an adjustment or is it time for new clutch plates?
What model you riding?
S2r 800 2006
How many miles on the plates? Also what are you using?
Change the engine oil recently?
+1
I meant to ask what oil are you using?.
21,500. Using full synthetic 10/30. Just changed oil about 300 miles ago.
It is definitely slipping. When I give gas fast I can feel it slipping then catch.
Oil can be your cause, specifically if it is energy conserving. Was the clutch slipping before the oil change? Changing oil to a motorcycle specific oil that has JASO MA on the label. If oil is your problem it may take more than one oil change, or, if bad enough, new plates, so you might want to try cheap non synthetic oil first.
