How long does a clutch last?
Just wondering when I should start thinking about replacing my clutch?
 \\;
I have 32K on my 2004 FatBoy with no problems so far. But I was thinking my clutch must be getting pretty thin as the miles go by. For the most part it's been ridden pretty easy \\;with mostly highway miles and about 40% two-up riding.
 \\;
The clutch show no signs of slipping but I was wondering what the average life span is?

RE: How long does a clutch last?
You should have plenty of life in that clutch.. You can’t think of it compared to the clutch in a car or a truck. A wet clutch should last a long time as long as you keep the maintenance up aka… keep fluid levels up and clean. Also, remember that if it does begin to slip, you have the ability to adjust it.. I wouldn’t worry about it at this point. My .02
