So I realized I never posted the reason why my clutch was slipping after me and @Journeyman replaced it soon after I bought the bike. The pressure plate was worn deep, which is also why my oil was turning grey according to the tech.

I hope this is the final solution. This bike (formally mine) needs to be back on the road.
