The bike is a
2008 GSXR 600
Riding style is mostly calm, daily commuting, and rev-matched shift changes. no clutch ups or drag racing.
I did reduce the gearing, -1 front +5 rear. Perhaps that is a factor.
Oil changes with Valvoline synthetic motorcycle oil every 4-5k miles.
The issue I'm having is clutch slip at high rpms (10,000 rpms +), exclusively on highway pulls. I've had it for 2 years. This is the only bike I've ridden, so I don't have any other experience to compare it to. I don't experience the issue at all on a day to day basis, so its not an urgent issue.
I believe it is the original clutch, as the past owners didn't ride it much (7,500 miles when I bought it.)
Its currently at 23,000 miles, which seems like a rather short lived clutch.
