'08 Speed Triple Clutch Issue

So at first I thought the tranny was rotten, lotta missed shifts both up and down. Specially 4-5-6 ... Discovered it's the clutch.

It does not dis-engage immediately. Sometimes takes a couple of wheel revolutions to break free. Bike won't start in gear, cold, hot or in-between.

When stopped if I hold the clutch in for 30 secs or so you can hear when it actually dis-engages and then the shift into first is butter smooth, can't even feel it. But when stone cold, if ya don't wait, the bike flat out lurches forward when shifted into first.

I've checked the adjustment & that aint it. Found a couple of others on the Rodent site who've experienced the same thing.

Anyone else experience this.

I haven't, I frequent thespeedtriple.com you may want to ask over there. R you on it? There is ALOT of VERY knowledgable people over there if your not. The Rodents best left there some time ago due to shawn. Either way, be prepared to take some shit, tell them is sent ya and you should get a ligitimate answer faster than normal.
