When the angle of the dangle is inversely proportional to the heat of the beat

Slip is best tested by getting into top at about 40mph, pulling the clutch in, pin it and let the clutch out.

If the revs drop the clutch is fine.

Try adjusting the clutch cable at top and bottom or a new cable

Make sure you sit back on the bike as well, for good measure

It helps you get a more accurate result by unloading the thingybob from that whatsitmajiggy, thus making the doodah spin more freely.

Got it?
