    I have a slipping clutch under load in all gears when bike is cold or if i ride it for a few hours then park up and let it sit for 45mins and take off it starts to slip again......clutch starts to grip after about 5-10 mins of riding.......any thoughts on this? 


    Lol going up hills of any kind is really annoying before it grips and i don't really want to have to do 4 laps of my block before going to my mates house who is 5 mins up the hill  :icon_scratch:

    Easy, take off the left side lower fairing and undo the big plug on the sprocket cover (put a 20c coin in the slot and use that to open it)

    Behind it is a grub screw with a nut on it, wind the screw in until you feel resistance then back it off 1/4 turn and do up the lock nut again. Should be good after that! If not perhaps the clutch plates are shagged. Replacing them isn't very hard :)

    The process is on 2-11 / 2-12 of the service manual. Hope that helps :)
