George, out of interest why don't you make your own? Would be a nice project for someone ;)

Surely it can't be that hard if the company above, which I imagine don't have half the resources you do, can have a crack at it?

Liability insurance, we can't make any parts that can be sold to the public, this however is in collaboration with a company.

A simple reconfiguration of the clutch plate stack yields a bike that rolls into a corner like a 250cc 2 stroke. A redesigned slipper is complete overkill.

We reduced the number of fiber plates in the sprag portion of the clutch down to 2. Less fiber equals less friction. I would only do it on a race bike though where checking and replacing the clutch happens frequently.

I've never had rear wheel chatter on my NC like I do on my 600rr. At lot of slipper clutches wear down on the ramps which isn't great for a street of casual track bike. The EVR uses steel inserts on the ramps that don't wear like aluminum. If some made one like that, I'd be game for one or two.
