Might have oil from the trans getting on the clutch disc. Does this happen most easily in 5th gear while accelerating?
Long story but I recently learned (again :-) why this happens in 5th (high) gear in a motorcycle, or in a 4X4 truck which has a choice of low and high range.

Hey All,
I could use some advice on clutch adjustment on my 75 R90s.? I installed an EZ puller last year and it seemed to work fine, but lately under acceleration the power disengages from the rear wheel (so it revs high and goes nowhere¡).? So I first adjusted the cable length to specs (measured cable and aligned with transmission case typical), then adjusted free play nut¡. but I can¡¯t seem to get it in the sweet spot.? It feels like the clutch is engaging or slipping while in gear.?
I was told the transmission was replaced at 92k miles by previous owner, and? it now has 99k.
