After a few hours of highway driving, my Deusce experiences clutch slip under low speed/high load. For example, say you slow down to 15 moh and then need to accelerate up a hill. The clutch will begin to slip a bit, which is easily controlled by backing off the throttle a bit.
This only happens after an expended run, and when things cool off/dry out the clutch no longer slips.
Yes, I know I should crawl underneath. I haven't done that yet.
My question is what type of leak would cause this. A rear seal leak would be on the other side of the flywheel - does the leaked oil aerosol inside the bellhousing to make things slippery on the back? Or would this be due to a leak at the transmission input shaft?
I am just curious as to what usually causes this type of behavior. I know I have to get under there.
