My '12 ntx has 12,000mi on it now, and I noticed that the clutch slave cyl. is creaking (making a slip stick kind of sound). when the clutch lever is pulled in. I have changed the fluid and flushed it 2x since new. The clutch feels ok, just the typ. groan when ice cold.

Is this common or something to get looked at while the warranty is in effect?

My 12 griso does not have a clutch slave cyl squeak when the lever is pulled in.
 
Bella is 6 years old with 23,000klm.
Been making the same sound for 2 years, since I bought it.

Solution; don't operate the clutch without engine running.
If you can still hear it, get louder pipes. :mrgreen:

Same squeak here on my 8v griso (15500 Km) since … don't remember. Flushing clutch oil (did it for other reasons) doesn't made a difference, too.

There are other noises that worry me more…
 
The dry single plate clutch diaphragm springs can make a noise some times the pivots in the pressure plate get dry may result in a heavier clutch opp. No real fix without removal of the trans
 
not really worrying about it much, probably just let the dealer look when they are doing the list of recalls. My bike oddly has a list of recalls matching the Brit mkt. bikes. I guess it was actually a left over it was one of the first 4 ntxs in the us
