[QUOTE="charismaticmegafauna, post: 156105, member: 665"] Oil is an itegral player in the wet clutch continuum -- so, advice to change it is sound. Maybe, try a different brand still. One thing that sometimes helps is to get more oil into the clutch assy. This is done by running the engine as much as you, conveniently, can with the clutch dis-engaged (plates apart). Just general practices of keeping the clutch pulled-in whenever not actually riding may help. In extreme cases, manufacturers have sometimes drilled extra holes in the inner-basket or devised oil troughs in cases or covers to remedy some clutch actuation problems. Either changing the oil (again) or holding the clutch in (more) are low risk and easy attempts at a remedy -- good luck. [/QUOTE]
