Clutch Plates recomendation

Post by Davez29 » Sun Dec 11, 2011 10:41 pm

As my bikes off tne road now I thought I would renew the clutch plates, although they dont give problems its just a precaution. Now looking on ebay theres a few different prices and most seem to say they are sending loose plates as needed. So that to me says the are just bulk selling possibly from the same source, so maybe no point spending more on unknown plates if they are all the same.

Can anyone recommend a good seller who's plates are not cheapo crap as I only want to put decent plates in?

Is it worth uprating to heavier springs as mine dont seem bad?

Plates wise.. stay away from Kyoto. I had some, cheap, in the NC30 and they were shite.

I use the EBC Kevlar plates now..they are very good.

Ok, thanks for the info.. I have been looking at a EBC SRK049 kit with springs, might go for that.

Hi guys

On a slightly different note, does anyone know where to get aluminium clutch plates from? I saw them on the durbahn website and thought they were a good idea for a track bike:
- less rotating mass
- better acceleration
Has anyone used them or know where to get them?

Cheers,

Doug
