I need help!!
« on: 09 June 2016, 02:25:38 pm »
So a little while ago my chain snapped on the motorway and caused a bunch of damage to the back of the bike. I got all the damaged parts replaced but ever since then it has felt like the clutch is slipping under power. So I changed the clutch and it was very worn so I figured that was it. However, now it is slightly better but still not right. Is this a gearbox issue and if so what could be wrong/ can i fix it without robbing a bank?
Any help will be appreciated

Did you replace the clutch push rod? If it was damaged by the chain it could be sticking and holding your plates open just enough to allow your clutch to slip

Perhaps you damaged the clutch mechanism when the chain went.

Have you tried winding out the clutch adjustment screw a quarter turn?

Someone on the Divvy forum has something similar. Someone suggested chain tension.
