[QUOTE="garyahouse, post: 1224261, member: 20946"] The big question is, How does it feel now? When you start the bike and it's still cold, can you slip the clutch without using the throttle and drive the bike around in a tight circle without the clutch lurching? When you do a hard shift into second gear under near full throttle, does the clutch grab with authority and nearly jerk the front wheel off the ground or does it feel like it's slipping? Does the bike down shift as smoothly as it did before? If so, you're probably OK. Keep in mind that the FJR has a very strong clutch and clutch failures are rare. By the way, it's fairly easy to take it apart and look at it. There are lots of pictures and videos available to show you how. Wouldn't hurt to give it a good soaking while you're at it, should you decide to do so. Gary darksider #44 [/QUOTE]
