I had my bike serviced last week (oil, filter etc) and since then I have notice that my bikes clutch has slipped twice, first time I was in 2nd gear and as i came into power band the revs shot up and i decelerated. This has just happened again tonight but in first gear.

Now this sounds like a worn clutch to me, maybe clutch was worn and the new engine oil may have just tipped it over the edge in term of lack of friction

BUT I am unable to replicate the fault no matter how hard i try, it just seem to happen random.

Bike (see sig) has done 5500 miles and ive had it for 5 weeks and done 1800 mies.

any ideas?
If it is just a straight clutch swap, any idea on price including fitting?
