Clutch problems when hot???
Hello, I have an 03 500R, the bike has 2700 miles on it.
I have issues putting it into gear after its been running for any time, If I go get gas, it will be off for about 10 minutes, then it will start back up, Ill try to put it in 1st and it stalls out. It didnt used to do this, but for the last 500 miles i have been having problems with it. A dealership that I called up said that sometimes the clutch stickes when its cold out, but mine wont work unless the bike cools down. It really shouldnt need a new clutch, Ive done a clutch cable adjustment, that fixed the problem once, but now it happens again and the clutch is adjusted. Any ideas are welcome. I am great with cars, but i am very new to bikes. I have been looking for a service manual but I havnt been able to find one yet. Thanks for all the help. Matt
