The 1500 is notorious for clutch problems.  There is a spring in the clutch that wears out.   There are several different versions of improvements.... There are lots of posts on this forum - this is one that has a few links to some of them

The clutch fluid you mentioned might help some,, but I don't know of any way to actually adjust it.

Have a 99/1500J Drifter..has been sitting for a while..did the brakes and desided to take it out for a putt..clutch either does not grab or slips! I have no idea of when the oil was changed..and I do not know if its possible to adjust that clutch?? The bike has 44K on it and I have No Idea of what was done with it in the past! I'm going to flush/re-fill the Clutch Fluid, drain and change the oil tomorrow.. to see if it helps. Whats Your Idea on my clutch problem?? Thanks.
