Completely lost
Everything has been running fine. No changes. This morning on way to work I went to take off from a stop in first and even with full throttle bike is barely moving. I tried putting in second but same thing. Engine running, reacting great - but even at screaming throttle very little power
Brakes aren't locked, it rolls easily downhill I mean I have the throttle buried and have to push with feet to get it to move, it's crazy Please help Login or Register to Remove Ads |

Does the engine bog down like its trying to push the bike at all? If not I would think its some kind of clutch issue.

Sounds like clutch slipping to me. Did this come on suddenly, or have you noticed a gradual loss of power and high revving in high gears previously?

It was the clutch, I had noticed high revving in higher gears previously, but hadn't put it together faster. Thank you both
