After market clutch baskets

Go to Shell Rotella T6 5W40. It is rated for your bike and clutch.
A notched basket will cause all sorts of clutch issues as will soft springs.

Im gonna mesure my fibers tomorrow. Do you think that the notched basket wrecked my new fibres?

smerch69:
Worn pressure plate a possibility?

Anything is possible but I doubt it. Are you 100% positive that you have all the parts and they are installed properly along with that there are no kinks or frays in the clutch cable?

So what i learned was that my ebc clutch springs were out of spec and i messured my stock ones and they were in spec. So i tossed them in and cleaned out all old oil and replaced with shell rotella t6 5w40. And it still slips. I noticed my inner hub and pressure plate have grooves in them, and when i pull my clutch it has stick spots where you can feel the grooves. Imguessing i should replace those?

Went over my clutch again and checked with my exploded diagram of the clutch and i have everything in it.

I dont have a magnetic drain plug. Never seen any shavings in oil. Im sure its not clutch pack. Same thing happens with new and old clutch.

No clicking, no hopping, no gear grinding no missed shifts...... Just slips... Interesting. I'm anxious to hear what the mechanic says. Please provide pics when he splits the cases.

You really want an OEM basket for the RM it's much better and cheaper than the Hinson.

When its slipping i can hear noises. Might just be the chain slapping
