Is this what it feels like when your clutch hub nut starts to come off . I can't think of what else it might be , any ideas? I'am getting a bad vbibration on acceleration in all the gears , had to leave the bike at street vibrations in Nevada .

How did clutch feel? If it's nut, usually you will start to feel it at lever, along with the clutch will start to slip.

-It's possible the pulley nut is loose.
-Transmission mounting bolts themselves are loose.
-Motor mount bolts are loose.
-Drive belt is too loose.
-Primary chain is too loose.

I had that prob a couple years back and it ended up being the primary tensioner fell out. New bolt, nut and some red loktite and it was good to go.

Clutch hub nut backed off,it made the adjustment on the chain loose so it chewed up some of the inside of the primary cover.hope that is the extent of damage,where can I get that new heat treated nut that was mentioned earlier I think maybe baker is making them?

I can send you one if I have one..I'll check tomorrow. Otherwise, I need to order other parts from Baker anyhow, so let me know if you want one. They are $9.
