i have a 06 636 and few weeks ago, i got a hole in the rad but heres the thing, before the hole appeared in the rad the bike sounded like the tranny was slippin when i just get on it and go while im riding, then the rad had got a hole. so i got the bike home thinkin that i just needed more oil. i swapped out the rad two days ago put more oil in it cause it was low.got the bike running and test driving it. now heres the kicker, the bike still doin the same thing, whinding out then picks up. bike shifts really good. now when i try ti just clutch it up for a small wheelie, bike whinds out the picks up strong. i was told that i could be the cable clutch is tight. not sure what it could be hoping its not pressure plates or needing a new tranny.
any suggestion or good advice would be apperciated

did you adjust the cable to see if it was tight ? there needs to be play in the cable or the clutch will slip and burn up the friction discs ..

Your explanation of things is hard to understand. Your tranny isnt going to slip, your clutch is, I doubt you need a new tranny/gear stack. Your radiator has nothing to do with the slipping, unless the bike overheated/headgasket failure or cracked water jackets, resulting in coolant in the oil.
You are using motorbike oil right? just checking here...

No joke. I've been there. It's always a relief to get shit sorted out on your own and not have to drop a fuck ton of cash to have it fixed.
