omg how stupid lol. thanksHave to hold it wide open and not release the clutch all the way I figure....probably doing an epic burn out or trying to wheelie

no I meant how stupid of his "friend" to do this. If you are a skilled rider (like I would call myself) I wouldnt even think about to do those things to my bike, let alone someone elses bike.Nope, good question actually....
If one were to never change the oil or let the oil get low and then abuse the clutch, it can go like this too.

The bike sounds great it just has a hard start and continues to drain the battery. Could it have gone this far even tho it sounds the same?Haha . . you got a way with words bro!
That clutch has had SERIOUS abuse.
That motor needs to be stripped and checked.
Study this chart . .

Heres another view of the lubrication system

Note the oil (with the debris from the clutch) first goes through the strainer before the pump.
The strainer mesh will be clogged, the bits small enough to go through the mesh will have gone through the oil pump, then through the oil cooler blocking that also, then to the filter clogging that up.
Oil pressure and flow rate are significantly reduced causing heat and friction damage to bearing surfaces and all metal to metal surfaces (cams to buckets) will be affected.
Bad news. Your 'friend' owes you a motor.
That statement implies you haven't already done so....I'm no master tech by any means but I'd bang a porn star bareback before starting an engine with that crap in the oil pan
Yes. In fact, more likely than not the motor needs to be rebuilt. Do the compression test as suggested. You've got more than one problem going on, there's not going to be a cheap fix.The bike sounds great it just has a hard start and continues to drain the battery.

I’ve seen this many times on farm bikes, DR200’s mostly, they get abused by the farm workers who don’t give a rats and slip that clutch all the way to hell, but on road bikes I’ve not seen it as bad as this.I love your knowledge!
In your opinion- what does someone have to do to screw up the clutch so badly? I have never seen this before...
You haven’t? I’ll try anything once... or two....That statement implies you haven't already done so....
He said the clutch was replaced once before it burned up again. There was probably a bunch of junk in the pan from the first one. That will choke oil supply. As I said before, the clutch is the last to see oil. The second one would burn up even faster if the stack height wasn’t correct.I love your knowledge!
