My Kat has 2400 miles. I purchased the bike from the original owner this year (where it had 1700 miles) and he gave me 8 quarts of Suzuki oil 10-40 SJ. He said that this was the oil he put in after the motor was broke in.
The clutch started to slip and grab at high rpm shifts the other day
. I don't slip the clutch while sitting still or "fan" it while riding. No abuse.
I adjusted the clutch lever freeplay properly, hoping to cure the problem. Still slips.
Reading through ALOT of posts here, I've come to the conclusion that the SJ oil is the wrong type so I went to my local dealer and bought 10-40 JASO-MA Suzuki oil and new filter today.
Question is: do you think the SJ oil could cause the premature slipping? By changing to the JASO-MA, will I regain any clutch grip? Or is the damage done?
