Default Clutch Slipping??

Well I just took the bike out tonight to drop off a movie. On the way home I was down shifting into first to come to a stop at a light and it just slipped slipped back up into neutral. This is the first time it has ever done anything like this. I have put around 6500 miles on it in 9 months and I'm an aggressive rider, but I don't really hot rod it around often. Is this a sign of the clutch slipping or just some sort of fluke? Anyone have any experience with this sort of thing? 05 black M50 (no Mods to the engine) 6500 miles. Schedules service.


Also, I'm a fairly new member here and this forum is Excellent! Such a vast amount of information and really cool to see all the mods, I've gotten some great ideas!
