The claimed factory rating for a 1980 KZ750-E1 with stock parts was 74 HP SAE (at the crank) A rating at the wheel is usually 10-12% lower ( = 66 to 67 HP) They did not mention torque but I would guess around 40 LBFT. You gained a little bit of HP with exhaust and carb swap, seems normal to me.

That sounds excellent to me! I'm surprised it's that much. Sounds like a sweet ride!

Thank you, for my clutch. What are you thinking? Oil or clutch ?

New OEM clutch springs. The oil is fine.

I use Rotella in my bikes with no clutch issues. Just make sure the oil has the JASO certification.

I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.

This would suggest an adjustment or cable issue (not enough "free-play") if the clearance is too small the clutch will heat up and reduce the clearance further (like resting your foot on the pedal in a car)

With age and mileage, the fiber plates are known to petrify. It may be time for a new set.
