Street Twin....sliping?

Well not really sliping or anything, but i noticed in lots of stop and go trafic i start to smell the clutch a little bit. Is it because the disk becomes glazed or what?

thanks

Yup. Happens to mine whenever I drive the car on Rhino ramps. Whenever you manipulate the clutch or "ride" it, you are creating heat through the friction. Something's gotta give .
