1. welcome to the site.
2. check the clutch adjustment at the barrel adjust and at the end of the cable. If your clutch cable is too tight it will make your clutch slip.
3. any oil from the weep hole?

Also look for any foreign matter under the lower arm, keeping it from releasing totaly. (J.O.'s gravel come to mind).
