I wanted to know what could be the problem with my bike. I have an 05 Yamaha Royal Star touring deluxe 1300. That I bought back in 2018 almost at the end of the riding season. Road great I rode it up to new years day. Cleaned it all up to store for that winter. Then the new riding season came and went on until 2021. I pulled bike out the garage to get it ready to go get it inspected ran great on Friday. I rode all weekend long with no issues. Then I rode in the memorial Day parade and half way through the parade the clutch got too hot and smoked the clutch. Got the home. Ordered an new clutch for it and installed the new clutch set for the bike. I fired up the bike to go take it for an test ride. The clutch lever seems to be locked up cause the clutch lever was hard to squeeze it in and shifted the bike into first gear and the bike just reved up. So I shut it off and pushed the bike back into the garage and torn apart the clutch cover and drained the fluid to see if I missed something but I didn't I went by the service manual from my Yamaha dealer. I even went as far as ordering an new clutch set for the second time around and same thing happened again.long story short I Had spent about $3500 so far I even had it to four different dealers and put another four clutches in it.Thats an total of 6 brand new clutches and still haven't been able to ride it and how the riding season already started. Going nuts not riding again
