Pain in the Clutch

<< < (2/3) > >>

JamesH:
Ok cool, sorry not trying to teach granny to suck eggs and all that. V annoying by the sound of it. I had a similiar issue on a 750 and in the end the only solution was to source a second hand clutch assembly and swap it in. Cured the problem. Then I fitted the new friction plates from the old assy and worked a treat. Good luck with it. James

Bitsa (Ralph Wright - RIP):
Go back to mineral and it will get better it did with mine and then like a doughnut did it with the 750 but have to say not so bad.
Cheers

bike-pusher:
I've used mineral and semi-synth in mine, according to whatever was in the garage at the time, and never had a problem.  Wouldn't use fully snyth, mind.

Lynx:
Actually I ran the bike on mineral oil for 500 miles while it was running in and I had the drag then too. It couldn't be anything in the gear box could it?

Lobo:
Lynx, is the engine just rebuilt (looks it).... could it be due to a case gasket of the wrong thickness?
