The Ninjette has a wet clutch, so when one has sat for awhile the clutch dries out. Also keep in mind to be aware of the type of oil you use, some of the modern oils contain additives to be more slippery, which is NOT good for a wet clutch as it will cause slippage.

Personally I use SHELL ROTELLA T6 synthetic, available at Wal-Mart for about $20.00 a gallon

I have never seen a clutch pack dry out but I guess that could happen!!!

+1 on the Rotella T6 Synthetic Great stuff!
