    Please follow this important safety recall. Make sure that your brake lights work when you squeeze the brake handle.

    A few questions.
    What year and make of bike?
    How many miles?
    Do you clutch wheelie the bike?
    Do you race?
    When was the engine oil changed last?
    What kind of oil are you running? Synthetic?
    Answers to these questions can lead to a conclusion.
    I would pull the clutch cover, remove clutch steels and plates, closely inspect with a micrometer for speck. Check crankcase for metal and nonferros debris. Also check the sides of your clutch springs for abrasions. This means the springs and studs need replaced asap. Replace clutch steel pack if it shows any signs of overheating. If you are in the Colorado Springs area of Colorado I can replace your clutch for a great price.
