The weather was great, so I took a 300+ mile ride Saturday. Toward the end, I was getting a hellish noise from the clutch/trans everytime I shifted. Also, the clutch slipped going up a hill. I managed to limp home, and will have it towed to the dealer on Tuesday. The bike only has 25K. I just sold my '96 with 81K and never any clutch trans problems. This seems way too soon for something like this to happen. I have seen some info on the IBMWR list about some RTs being prone to this due to alignment problems. What should I look for as it is torn apart? I am concerned about this being a recurring problem. Somewhere I read that some bikes eat clutches every 25-30K like clockwork.
Any advice?
