Clutch?

[Roseknight]

ok so I'm cruising down the freeway.. about 70 mph in 5th.. and the engine revs up on it's own I back off the gas and then back on and things continue as if it's never happened.. this is the 3rd time in about 150 miles of riding..
So is it a time for a new clutch or is there perhaps some other potenial cause?

Thanks

sounds like its slipping.... could just be as simple as adjusting it. I had some slippage years ago when I used Duralube...

Got fresh oil?

If you need a new one it really is not that daunting a task to replace.

mine did the same thing the other month on the freeway and I just reached forward and adjusted the cable at the lever in full flight. Running with a too tight cluch adjustment must be hard on the throw out bearing as it would be engaged at all times not just when you use the clutch.

What kind of oil do you use ?? Check the cable adjustment

as to oil I just put in Castrol GTX from the autoparts store.

sounds like I need to double check the adjustment and hope that fixes it.
I havent touched that yet so.. maybe thats it..

thanks for the input
