Clutch is slipping when cold. It used to be when pulling away a bit faster when cold but this morning it was slipping when I was really trying to be soft.
It makes a sound like a wooden chair being dragged across a hard surface if that makes sense.
Once warm you wouldn't know anything was wrong as it won't slip at all.
Are there any easy checks to be done with something like this or is it just hold me hands up and cough out for the friction plates?
The bike is 15 years old (SV650S) with 21K miles, however it all depends on what happened in those miles I suppose.
I don't really have the opportunity to do any in depth work myself as there isnt enough room in the garage and I can't leave it in pieces for weeks as I commute on it.
