I recently purchased a honda cb700sc from a friend. He rode it quite a bit about 6 months ago and I know it ran fine. I recently purchased it from him and after getting the carbs cleaned out ok it now runs strong but the clutch which is hydraulic is slipping. It did not do this when parked. I have bled the hydraulic clutch and changed fluid in it but it still grinds going into first gear and you have to take it easy going from gear to gear or it slips badly. If you take it easy going to the next gear before getting back into the gas the clutch holds fine. I have not changed the oil yet.
Any ideals on what could cause this? I believe the clutch is good. If you get rolling and let the clutch out first it will blow the back tire off very easy.
