i could be wrong but----try this first. put it up aginst a solid object , wall , house , tree , curb , truck , anything thats good to push on. put it in 2nd gear and fearther the clutch , add a bit of thottle to keep it running , see if you can get the clutch to slip. if it slips get it hot enough to burn off the glaze thats on the clutch disks . after setting for that lienght of time your bound to have some glaze on the disks. after it cooles off some . change the oil and filter. nothing wrong with the rotella 15-40 . i use it in my 83. when you change oil watch for any friction disk pices. they will be small. also the oil will be dirty looking. thats the glaze comeing off.
thats my 2 cents worth.
if there is a lot of disk stuff in the oil . a clutch change is in order. its do able with the engine in frame . close ---but do able.
