burned out clutch?
i have a 2013 honda cbr 250r
i know yall are going to tell me im stupid but im not going to lie
i tried doing wheelies tonight and managed to do some good ones also scared me on some but i smelt somthing burning so i figured it was my clutch. i stopped and let the bike rest, ( i was by the beach so i puit a pinch in and relaxed)
when i got back on my bike to ride home the suspension was really really soft and the "friction zone" on the clutch wasnt really there it feels like the friction zone got really really low
before i would let the clutch out half way and it would start going now its about 7/8 out before it engages!!!
i dont know whats wrong but feels like little to no clutch
what do yall think?

took it to the dealer the life time warranty doesnt cover my damage the dealer techs took it for a ride did some test they are saying the clutch pads are almost gone said my 250 aint for doing wheelies and they are amazed i could even get the wheel off the ground but they quoted me $180 FML!!!!

The reason your clutch burnt is not because you were doing wheelies but doing them incorrectly, You shouldn't be slipping your clutch but more dumping it.
Read up a little more on how to do them and keep them off public roads.

Are you a new rider or was the 250 for good gas mileage? In any case, any bike with normal street gearing and very little torque is going to have a tough time getting the front end up. They are just not meant to take that kind of abuse.
On another note.....if you are a new rider, maybe take this as a lesson. Instead of practicing screwball antics, learn to ride properly. Once you do, you can then lean towards the stunting aspects (in safe and legal locations!) If that's your thing. If you had a 600 or a liter bike with that kind of attitude right now, you probably would have already crashed and wrecked your bike...or worse.
