im been getting some good wheelies out of my bike but the clutch seems to not work as well once the bike gets heated up. getting ready for a ride, i start the bike up and let it warn up as i get ready for the ride. on a cold clutch the bike leaps right up for wheelies anytime anywhere. after the ride, low on gas and high on heat. i try to jump up the bike and get squat. even giving the bike more throttle than i should take and still nothing. whats the physics involved here? |

Don't use the clutch. Run it up to around 2,500 to 3,000.........chop the throttle and then gouge it on the rebound...it'll pop right up .......... |

I'm running amsoil in the primary it really strange that the clutch gets fadded.. arnt the friction plates composed of similar material as used in disk brakes? ¿¿brake fade = clutch fade?? or am I crazy |

I think most XB's do this. I have always noticed a difference in mine when it gets really hot. Maybe it has something to do with the oil being thicker when cold? |
