i just put a new clutch a couple of weeks ago in a gsx and have about 1500 miles on it. If i drop the clutch any higher then 6000 rpm it just slips or if i shift into 2nd higher then 6300 rpm it just slips but it doesnt slip any other time. any suggestions.

Actually, that same thing happened to me. The first four runs were like teeth wrenching, mind jarring hard clutch engagement feeling launches but didn't yield a 60ft under 2.0. Then that last run it was smooth and powerful at the same time and I had a 1.9 60ft. I'm hoping that was it. I attribute most of my 60ft trouble to the stock 145k blown out struts anyway, but it was wierd getting those slow hard launches and then all the sudden the smooth quick one.
