Clutch issues when warm
 

My 2008 EC300 clutch works fine but after long extreme sections or climbs when I?m slipping the clutch a lot it seems to ?fade? and I get a lot of free play in the lever.

I know my basket is starting to get notched but I don?t think this is related

Same here. last ride I used a lot of second gear where i should have first and slipped the clutch more than usual. I had this excessive free play at the lever which slowly went back to normal the less I used it. when the bike cooled down it went totally normal and stayed like that for the rest of the day, of course I was easier on it after the incident. The fluid in the tank is long due for a change, maybe plays a part? I'll do it tomorrow. Has it something to do with the slave cylinder or the basket, or is it normal? :confused:

Change fluid for sure.

Turns out that I had fluid missing from the tank, it was below the middle of the looking glass. probably leaking from the piston seal as it happens very often... I just filled it up with fluid and went riding the same way to reproduce the incident but it was good all day through. today I finally did a proper flush and refill with dot4 (and did a trans oil change too). great ride yesterday! :)
