[QUOTE="kx125412, post: 1211050, member: 68341"] What the clutch does is engage and disengage the transmission. It does this by pushing the clutch plates apart and and when you release the lever the springs pull the plates back together. If the plates are worn out they are not putting enough pressure on themselves to fully stick. When a load is put on the motor the plates should not slip. When they wear out thats what they do, they slip. This causes your motor to rev up but you not going anywhere. When you first put the bike in gear and take off you slowly let out the clutch and give it gas. The bike is revving up but your moving slowly to get going because the plates arent fully together and once the clutch is fully disengaged you have normal power. But if you hold the clutch lever halfway out you can rev the bike all you want and not go very far very fast. This is slipping the clutch. [/QUOTE]
