1200GSA New Clutch

[KevOK]

Hey Guys,
I've had a problem with my clutch slipping so after discussing it with Bmw I had them install a new one. It seems worse now than before I had it replaced after spending 2170$ on it as well. I stinks worse than before, I'm just wondering if it needs to be run in before I go back and fire it at them. Also the leaver is only engaging right at the end before I release it, shouldn't it engage at the other end when it's new.
Thank's for all your advise guys, I know they'll be plenty

2170 dollars... jesus that sounds expensive(even aussy ones) for a clutch, anybody got any idea of normal lifespan of same?sorry for the hijack!

Handguads

+1 for the handguards. If you have the old model handguards, they could dip down a bit and prevent the clutch handle from extending fully thus cause the clutch to slip. It happened to me.
