Default 95 cbr 600, clutch issues

Hi I got a 95 cbr awhile back had to replace the clutch, feels like the clutch is starting to slip again and may need to replace🤦‍♂️ and has been a month or less since the new one was put in. idk if I’m riding the bike too hard or incorrectly letting clutch out to fast dropping it too much or engine braking too much, also feels like the bike overheats sometime idk if it’s out of coolant and am gonna check it when it cools down, I just don’t know what would make the plates ware down so quickly, it is also my daily drive and I ride hard and fast all the time lol🤷‍♂️

If it really is the clutch worn out, I'd say it was not adjusted properly. If there was no slack in the clutch cable, then the clutch may not have been fully engaged. This would cause premature failure/wear.

how would it be adjusted properly at the plates in the basket and hub or by the cable? The bike is at high Rpm and it’s not catching like it should thing is normally a rocket, same thing happened before and changed plates and went back to normal for a month.

The clutch lever should have between 10 - 20 mm of free play as measured at the end of the clutch lever. That free play ensures that there is no tension on the clutch cable which would prevent the clutch from fully engaging.
