mine does the same thing now. Its not the cable. Its more than likley the clutch plates need replacing. Im replacing mine as soon as I order some parts.

could the plates be frozen up its been really cold here the last few nights gets down round 0 or so

i dont think so.

I honestly think you have the same problem as me. I am going to be getting a EBC clutch ket with the HD springs. They run like $70. I know that this is the problem with mine and it sounds like you are in the same situation.

On mine I know for a fact its not the cable. I have adjusted it every which way and got nothing. It never hurts to try though.

Posted by: Sjorge300EX

see i know it is the clutch on mine because when i am riding fast. (5th gear pinned) The clutch slips and my rpms bounce off of the limiter and then drop back down.
