    My clutch is slipping

    Ok, Guys my clutch is slipping with only 3200 miles on it, Do I need a new clutch ? Is it a hard thing to replace ? What is the best one to get if needed?

    It is a 15 sx , Only slips when on higher revs. it has lighter springs ? quick shifter, tuned and APH pipe more HP ?? Warranty LOL

    Barnet make a clutch pack for the 1125 that I hear works well ??

    Slipping all the time or only on the high end? The 15 and later revised slave and softer springs does allow a little slippage up top, which has had an effect on stock bike dyno results as well. I plan to go to some heavier springs and Oberon slave cylinder to counter this, but still keep moderate clutch feel. I also am switching to an 1190RS Accossato master cylinder because I have it though, so no idea if the MC will make any significant difference. It shouldn't.

    Only slips when on higher revs. just ordered a 1125 clutch for it, I might shim the springs also.
