    Clutch with a temper

    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

    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?
    I've learnt to hide the pain inside, open the throttle and ride away.

    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
