    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I read using the search engine that wheelspin with the clutch in is normal. It is mild wheelspin that you would be able to stop with your hand.

On my bike, it rides fine but on the centerstand pulling the clutch in, the wheel will rotate with more power than I can stop with my hand. It appears to ride fine though. Just half a second of slippage when initially going into a gear accelerating. Do I need a new clutch?
 
Yeah, thinking about it you are right, slippage is when the clutch cannot make contact with the motor so the wheel would not be turning at all. Thanks for reassuring. I will readjust everything to spec just to be sure

By the way the name of the subject was supposed to be "cl1tch sluppage" (1=i) but it caught the you-know-what in there
