    Default Clutch Up question

    07 R6

    Past couple months I've been practicing clutching up in first gear and its feeling really good now.
    But now when I’m driving normal, my gears feel really loose, almost like it doesn’t want to go into gear. Is my clutch going out?

    The bike only has 8grand, I thought it might be acting like that cause it was heated up.
    Not real sure thou.

    Did you check you clutch adjustment? If so i think our bikes have a gearchange return spring....maybe that's your problem.

    Check your adjustment but more than likely I would say it is in your head. You can beat the crap out of these clutches and you won't feel any signs of damage.

    Have you changed your shifting process lately? When I shift a high RPMS's it's like butter but if I try and short shift it it doesn't have the same crispness.
