My 600 used to have similar events coming off a particular roundabout onto a dual carriageway at this time of year when the roads are greasy. On the first occasion I thought it must be clutch slip because surely, with the slight lean I had on, I'd have felt a jolt if not high-sided? In fact the clutch was fine (now at 65k and still alright) and it was a no-drama event, just odd. The wheel spun up momentarily, then found grip in a smooth manner, although it felt more like a weird throttle issue. Either it happened so fast I didn't have time to respond in a ruinous way, or my all-year-round, daily-rider status back then (I've since got old and soft ) meant I had no fear and I just rode through it. Still, I agree 110k suggests a new clutch might be in order. |

As above clutch slip. It's the right time of year for gummed up cables though so your first port of call should be service the cable and set the free-play. If you pop the cable off at the cover end you should be able to make the lever flap in and out by pushing and pulling the cable end with very light pressure. ____________________ a.k.a 'Geri'

It sounds like clutch slip to me too.
And at that mileage, pretty much a forgon.
Clutchless changes? Why do you think that they would 'save' clutch plate wear? Think about it... instead of taking pressure off the springs clamping the plates together, so that the plates have less load on them when the shafts try and spin them at different speeds.... making 'clutchless' changes... you leave the pressure on the plates... then boot the cogs through, and let the difference in shaft speeds spin the plates with full-engagement spring load on them when they rub.... if anything, making clutchless changes will wear the plates more rapidly, not less...
I have the feeling that it's the same clutch on the CBR6 as my CB750... lots of bits are.... in which case yes, its a PITA to replace. It's actually not that horendouse a job.... it's just the chuffing nut that holes the clutch together!!! Otherwise, its a case of dump the oil, wip out, I think six case screws to get the cover off, pull the clutch basket, undo the six M6's on the springs, remove plates, re-assemble with a new gasket.....
That nut, though is a bit of a bast. On the Seven-Fifty, I think that a couple of folk must have been in there before me, because If recall right, the nut, is an axial castle; Ie it engages on crenalations in the axis of the shaft, not from the outside, like you could undo with a C-Spanner, so you really do 'need' the Honda special tool.... I had a devils finding the right one for the Seven-Fifty, and I think that when I tracked on down it cost something daft like £30... but WELL worth it.... as said, I was not the first to tackle the thing, and some-one had had a go with a chissel.... so the nigins on the castle not were rather butchered, and the lock-wasjher had been bend over more than once or twice, and was rather chewed and the only thing really holding the not-so tight mangled nut on the shaft!!!! If doing the job again / on similar bike; I'd splurge on a new nut and washer from DSS (as I had to on that one ISTR) before I started, along with the proper nut-spanner.... make life easy and save trying to 'save' crackered old nut and washer, or wait to dinish job whilst they arrived in the post.
Otherwise, just remember to soak the new clutch plates in oil over-night, before building up the basket. It's a pretty straight forward job... other than that ruddy nut... but with the right socket?
