clutch = officially 90% dead

so if im 1/2-3/4 throttle once i hit 4k rpm it'll let go ..time for a new clutch (i don't usually do the 1/2-3/4 throttle but at full throttle it was letting to so i was seeing how low i could go in throttle to get it to let go)...and darren if your reading this NO i am not gonna put the stock one i bought in there right away..im gonna wait to see how much money i have left over after i buy the bike..because if i have enough for a spec 2 clutch or w/e i'll get one of thoughs haha

that sucks man. from everything i read go with a 2+, i hear the stage 2 and 3 arent that great but the bit extra spent on a + series is worth it. another avenue would be a centerforce df or dfx, they are a great value as they come with an aluminum flywheel, however they are still more than a spec clutch by itself. if your after an oem replacment i can get you one through my shop, just sold a kid one for his ion yesterday. they are a Luk clutch, one of the best names in oem replacment clutches.

are you planning on putting this in yourself??? if not, i may be bale to get you a good price on an install, just pm me if your interested

if your going to install it yourself and have the time id throw the stock one in with a new slave cyl and save up for a better clutch. if your going to spend the money on having it installed, get a performance clutch now and save yourself the extra labour time.
