Re: clutch problem

Thanks John,

manage to have smooth tranmission from gear to gear now and the bike
doesn't stall when it stop or idle. I reckon i did not manage to
fully clean out the flood i the engine but as i do some travelling
with it the situation improved. However, there is still a minor
problem, i notice when i hit the trottle hard, the bike will pick up
speed and revs as normal, but till it reach 7000rpm. at 7000 rpm,
the bike just rev immediately to 10,000 rpm but doesn't increase
much speed. this is never seen before the fall. Any idea what's
wrong? could it be engine oil problem, i do think i have
accidentally added a bit more than i wanted to engine oil when i try
to top up the engine oil after it has lost a considerably amount
during the fall.

Cheers
jeremy

Jeremy, Seems unlikely you would damage anything else in such a fall. Unless the cable broke inside - is there resistance when you pull the lever? Can you see...

Maybe it could be clutch lever adjustment; incorrect oil type; worn clutch or pressure plate... -John Avis...
