	Try adjusting it at clutch lever if you haven't already,or you can adjust it right at the clutch too. If adjusting it doesn't work you need new friction plates (think they're called that), the steel plates are probably ok. And if you have bad oil or the wrong kind in it that could make the clutch slip, you have to have oil that works with wet clutches. Rating: 0 Quick Edit Full Edit

	you need fibers and springs, tho pressure plates wouldn't be bad to replace too Living Life 1 berm at a time. Rating: 0 Quick Edit Full Edit
