Transmission Slipping And Need Input ....

[BigDan'sBusa]

Hey guys and gals ...
I have an 2006 Busa with 8000 miles on it ...
I bought it brand new ..
So my transmission started slipping , in 1st,2nd,& 3rd gears ...
So first thing I did was start by changing fluid for clutch ..
Continued to slip , so changed clutches and changed fluid again ..
It still slips but in 2nd & 3rd but at low RPM's ...
Used OEM clutches , plates & springs ..
Used service manual to perform all the work ..
I am stuck ..
Has this happened to anyone or does any one have any idea what it mite be ..
Thanks a bunch guys and gals ...
God bless

This is probably a daft question ... You are using Motorcycle specific oil ?

Have you checked clutch push rod,could be sticking slightlydue to being covered by chain lube,you only need to remove front sprocket cover to check

You probably over-filled the clutch master cylinder . . . take some fluid out of that reservoir . . .

Hi . I'm having mine in for its 12000km service today so I'll ask probable cause. this page is from the Haynes book for gen 1 model on clutch issues. I hope this helps

I spoke to Gavin at Coleman's about your clutch issue. two questions were thrown up 1 such low mileage over 10 years , not sure where he was going on that one except not worn in properly and whether the bike was used for drag racing in its life , basically the bike needs to be ridden harder to wear the components in. at 8000 miles the bike is nearly run in . keep me posted at to how you get on

Did you soak the new plates in oil before you installed them?

Did you find the fault
