Default clutch

hey. i dont no what is happening with my biek but i run 20w 50 motul oil in it and it seems to be to thick maybe?? when u first warm it up then put it in gear to take off it stalls but not every time the clutch is adjusted properly.
and one day i was flogin it up the road for about 5 minutes and then the clutch got really easy like it should be. i normally have to have it pretty much on full adjustment on the handle bars so it dosent stall in corners or taking off do u think my clutch is stuffed?? the oil in the resiviour is clean and full and everything so im not to sure whats goin on thanx..

If you bought it new the clutch should've been adjusted properly already. I own a 2007 KTM 250 sxf and i bought it brand new and I've never had problems with the clutch its always been butter smooth. But KTM recommends 10w-50 oil...not 20w-50 and it NEEDS to be fully synthetic no matter what. I know the motorex stuff is expensive but thats what you need. Try the new oil and if that doesn't solve it then maybe you need to take it to shop or downshift into corners
