Default clutch and belt temp??

the stock clutch set up does get warm to the touch. but if you have done any clutch mods, or spring adjustments, those all contribute to more heat.

also, it wouldnt hurt to make sure that the clutch breather tube is free and clear of debris. a buddy o mine shredded a belt, and most of the belt material ended up in the breather tube. he replaced the belt and didnt check the tube. so he ended up shredding a brand new belt that next ride, because it got way too hot.

also if youve been in alot of mud, it can get caked up in that tube as well and not allow it to vent.

hope this helps.
