I'd be back to the Dealer in a heartbeat, that should be WARRANTY repair, other than that I'd check the primary fluid , I beleive it holds a quart, The SERT has nothing to do with that problem unless of course it incresed your HP 50 or so>>>> NOT.   Greg

gabe,

Definitely take the bike back to the dealer asap.  The 103's came with a stronger clutch spring to prevent exactly what you are describing, and I haven't seen a clutch slipping issue reported on a stock (or nearly stock) 103.  It's possible your bike was assembled with the wrong spring, or there could be other internal issues with the clutch.
