[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1443260, member: 19880"] I sold my '07 with 295,000 km (185,000 mi) and I can say the same - original clutch disks and never replaced the brass bushing in the lever but I have seen ones nearly as bad as the one in the photo posted by infrared. Not uncommon if not properly maintained but will last forever if cleaned and lubricated on a semi-regular basis. Clutch (and brake) fluid gets flushed every two years. Note to OP: Completely flush the clutch circuit if it has not been done in the last couple of years. It is almost as easy to do as a simple bleed to get rid of any possible bubbles in the system and fresh fluid is a good idea anyway. Lots of people like to use "Speed Bleeders" but I never found them to be necessary on the FJR. YMMV [/QUOTE]
