Clutch slipping

[ninja138uk]

Hi people, i have a 2005 gen 1 busa and when I give it some beans from lights or a junction, the bike seems to jump, new clutch was put in but still doing it, only happens in 1st and 2nd gears, when ridden normally, it doesn't happen, any idea's, I've had lots of opinions but clutch basket was mentioned today, cheers

Is this jumping. Almost feeling like your chain is skipping a tooth on the sprocket? Or is it a smooth slip? Like you're riding the clutch. RPM climbing without going anywhere.

Checked the oil level? Might be low

Sounds like chain is loose or your sprockets have poop the bed.

If it's really jerky then it's most likely the clutch hub. Or what Suzuki calls the "CAM SET, CLUTCH". It's called a slipper hub. It's a 2 piece hub and will cause jerking under hard acceleration. The two pieces can be welded together. Or Brock's makes a 1 piece hub. Either will take care of the jerking felt from the slipper hub.

Hub, Basket, or the proper Suzuki part name "CAM SET, CLUTCH". If it's jerking under hard acceleration that's the problem...

Slight chance it might be a loose cush drive. Might as well try that. Set the bike on he side stand and pull the rear sprocket clockwise and CCW. There should be no movement between the sprocket carrier and the drum at all.

Brock Davidson just put a video up on YouTube. At 21 minutes into the video he talks about 5 minutes about the exact issue you are having. And what causes it. Might be helpful to watch it. Here's the link...
