Hi guys
I had my oil changed on my 01 ds at my dealer about 2weeks ago and rode it today and noticed my clutch is slipping. When my dealer changed the oil he said he used the bomb synthetic oil in it. Up to this point I used bomb 4 stroke oil what ever came from the factory in it. Before I had it changed everything worked great no slipping at all. Is the synthetic oil to slippery? Or is it time to adjust my clutch cable some. I have 3800 miles on the bike and have not had any problems whatsoever. What do you guys think? thanks

 

The stock bomb oil you have been using is synthetic oil. It is not too slippery, but almost all bombs start slipping the clutch eventually. Take the clutch apart and if all the plates are within spec, just put in stiffer springs. If not, put in new fibers and steels and then put in stiffer springs.
