Clutch adjustment

What happens at cruising speed, 60-80kph in 4th gear, holding the throttle steady & pushing down the pedal & letting your foot slip off?
The engine will gain about 20-2500revs and the tires might chirp and the clutch should grab so fast that there is almost no measurable time between reving free then back down to road speed.
If you hear the engine wind down slowly, like 1 second or more, then it's a poor clutch.

DO NOT LISTEN TO ANY BS ABOUT NOT 'BREAKING IT IN' RIGHT!
Yes, you can hurt it with high revs & slipping it a lot, but a dozen or so normal take offs is all it needs to get the fuzz off the disk.

So what!
