    Hi guys,

    I realise a clutch rebuild is straight forward.

    What would be the symptoms that indicate your clutch is worn or needs replacement?

    Thanks..

    Most often it's noticeable is a mild slip as you get into the power band. It may not slip off the line (unless you're really taking off) but under normal riding, when you roll on the throttle and the bike gets up around 6k rpm you'll feel it slip just a little then the bike seems to "catch up". When that happens, it's time to order plates, a gasket, and (perhaps) some new springs.
