Hi all,
I,m currently having some problems with my 2002 290 sherco clutch.
It is taking a long time to get it to work from start up.
I have changed the oil every 20hr since i got it but still taking several minutes to work, once it works it does fine.
Q: could this be time to replace the clutch plates or is there something ells that could be going on

footpeg, your bike is in its 8th year now, if the plates have never been changed then they are well overdue. Inspect the the steel plates and clutch basket also as they may require 'dressing up'.

The following article on this topic is also extremely useful
