black cat feels like its slipping

Post by speedy »

i went out for a ride today and my black cat started feeling like the clutch was slipping. could it be the belt? it still has rood rpm and everything. it just never seems to have that grab after you take off from a stop.

pull the cover off and take a look at your clutches

your belt could be worn or the face of the clutches covered in belt rubber, rollers could be dirty and hanging up

it's only a few bolt, just keep track of what hole they came out of
