I agree when riding aggressively and I've resorted to that when I can, but speed shifting around town is not very friendly. Naturall the right thing to do is fix the problem.

A buddy of mine sent me the following:

hi it sounds like the same problem I had.in the service manual it says air in line. clutch plates warped or damaged. this will cause a drag on the clutch causing machine to creep. overhaul clutch assembly. clutch spring tension uneven usually caused by sagging or broken spring. engine oil is deteriorated causing drag. engine oil viscosity to high. clutch center drum and outer drum worn. indentations by the clutch plate tangs of the channels in center and drum will prevent easy plate disengagement. clutch slave cylinder defective. loose clutch nut. causes drum and hub misalignment putting a drag on engine. engagement adjustment continualy varies. overhaul clutch assembly. this last entry sounds like the problem. you may have to disasemble the clutch and check everything.


Thoughts?
