[QUOTE="ionbeam, post: 1146083, member: 277"] With a warmed up engine, an assistant and due care: Put bike on center stand, start, put in 1st gear with clutch pulled in, keep the clutch pulled in. Is the rear tire turning? If the rear tire is turning have the assistant [I]carefully[/I] touch a shoe toe to the rear wheel. Does the wheel stop with very light pressure? Does the wheel spin strongly against more firm pressure? If the rear tire doesn't turn or turns with very weak force your entire clutch system is good. If it turns with force then you are looking at a partly engaged clutch. [/QUOTE]
