I just bought my 600 and I have about 900 miles on it. But when I hit like 80mph its like my clutch is sliping. What do I do?

 

does anyone live around Atl or paulding?

 

did u check ur free play on ur cltuch ?

 

Yeah I did. I have someone tell me that there was a screw that you loosen to make it grab on top end. He said it was like the clutch freespins when you get so fast? I was just wondering if anyone herd of that>.

 

we've actually got quite a few members from the ATL area. i haven't heard of that happening before. definitely check the free play. since it's so new i'd take it back to the dealer and have them take care of it though. good luck!

 

im from the Rome GA area 2 hours NW of ATL. but im stationed in PA right now, 1 year to go. can't wait to get back down south.

 

Well Let me know when you get back? I respect you guys so much to able to get out and ride whenever I want thanks so much!!!!!

 

With only 900 miles I agree with cbr04, take it to the dealer. You will deal with enough once your warranty is gone, why deal with issues you dont have to. If you do find the problem though, you should post it so any other forum members who might encounter the same prob (without a warranty) could benefit from your info. Good luck.

 

When does it feel like the clutch is slipping? Are you shifting through the gears and it's only at 80 mph...are you shifting hard or just casual driving. Does it happen every time at that speed, what gear are you going into, does it ever happen during down shifting, does it happen in every gear?

With what you mentioned so far about it happening at 80 mph, a technique issue was the first thing that came to mind...

 

Its like a governor is on the trans. like shifting hard its fine until I get to high speed and its kinda like its slipping. I have rode all my life and never felt anything like that> I dont know what it could be
