I understand from what i have read about the VL250 (08 esp) that the clutch seems to stick and play up....

ive recently discovered this is true while mid corner, a really tight corner:shit:

what happens is at random the clutch decides to engage give the bike a jump, loss of power etc.... without me even touching it or just after a gear change. Its not all the time but when it happens it always gives me a hell of a fright.

what could be causing this? and is it worth considering a new cable?

the bike is under warranty and is about 1000km off its next service, is it worth taking to be looked at or could it be something i can fix on my own?

If the bike is still under warranty take it in for them to have a look
This problem sounds dangerous enough so I would want it checked out ASAP
