Oberon Clutch Leve causing slipping?

Here to see if anyone is having the same issue. I installed the Oberon Adjustable clutch lever on my 2018 RKS and i noticed today when I got on the throttle, the engine would rev and I wasn't getting power, AKA my clutch was slipping. I had it on the "1" setting which caused me to lose the ability to start in gear, but now this...not too happy.

Sell it and get a softbrake lever. I had the Oberons and they were too short for me. The softbrake lever is basically just a stock lever that is heated and bent, giving a engagement point 1" closer to the bars.

If you're having difficulty with the engagement point of the lever travel, look into having the AIM Lightforce or the Muller unit installed. Feels just like a cable system with the easy pull, engagement is closer to the grip and linear.

I have the same issue with my Oberon. Called the company and it was suggested checking the reservoir to assure it was at max level. If topping it off didn't work, he offered to take it back with full refund.
