2001blackshee Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 ridin earlier today bike takes off nasty and runs strong after third gear it seems to change like if i gun it itwill rev high and pull but it doesn;t seem to pull as hard as if i ease into it any suggestions if its the clutch it wouldnt pull hard in the first 3 gears.... it would rev up and slip everytime u hit the PB... take ur clutch apart and look at the plates... Or maybe ur cable adjustment is off... I burned a clutch riding for 10 mins with a bad clutch adjustment... I know onmy old 4 stroke.. with there torque.. a clutch going bad is a no brainer.!!!!!

matt1 Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 The clutch will usually slip more in high gears than the lower ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superswire Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 (edited) umm... What? I couldn't understand any of that. What ? if you can smoke the tires its not your clutch its prob just running like shit in the higher rpms because its too lean for the cooler weather or something else happened...havbe someone who knows what they are doing come check it out for you...ask around man, someone has to know someone near you...if your clutch was shot, i dont see how you could burn the tires off... Youre not that far from me dude, pm me and ill give you my number, or you have my email too...well figure it out...

Seen it MANY times. Clutches usually slip in the higher gears where it sees the most load and least tire spin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
