Hey Dean,

Shameless plug:

How about a nice clean pod and tail section, '09 swingarm, and extra set of wheels to match that machine?!?! Nudge Nudge...

Looks like you lost traction in the rear. Thats where traction control would come in handy. Good thing you didnt get run over. I like how all the good citizens stopped to see if you were ok....LOL.

Deanh8 I'm glad you walked away not hurt, the bike has very little damage and you was able to ride away.

Looked like a lowside on cold wet pavement.

I'm sorry to hear, but at the same time glad you are ok, and the only damage to the bike was cosmetic/minor pieces.

3rd gear pull, power wheelie in 4th, and WOT in 5th and 6th.

That's with what EBR reccomended?

What do you do now, get an aftermarket race clutch kit?

Probably just a new set of frictions and steels. They *are* wear parts.

Dean, do you need the clutch pack at a specific thickness, or just a clutch pack that's got friction material left on it? I go through a couple of clutch packs a year, but they are out of tolerance for the Suter clutch at about half-worn.

That's what I meant, a friction plate kit or whatever.

I thought Dean called EBR and they recommended he use upgraded clutch parts, which he installed.

But I'm too lazy to go check....

It's possible he needs the stiffer clutch springs for more clamp. I use a slightly stiffer set up in my Suter clutch than stock, and it lets me get just a touch more life out of the clutch pack -- but that clutch is a whole 'nuther animal, and not really something I'd recommend to a drag racer as worth while.

I've been using the Barnett's 1125 pack kit with the Suter clutch, and they are drop-in, except for the springs (which go to a parts bin). For stock clutch, the Barnett stuff is easily available (around $200). Not sure what the EBR upgrades are...

You like the Barnett? I find they last about half as long as the OEM plates...

You running the suter?

Oem plates last longer? What about non-slipper plate longevity?

I've used the Barnett pack because I had them as a back-up set in the trackside box o goodies. They lasted me a season OK - 7 race weekends and assorted trackdays between. You're harder on clutches than I am, faster too.

Lasts forever. Most of my wear is the slipper clutch.

Jim -
As far as springs, are you talking about the "race" springs EBR sells?
I loaded a set of those for a customer and the clutch pull was like an old Triumph... please no stop-n-go traffic.... :-(
I was worried, but he liked it. even a month later.

Yea, it adds clamping pressure. The Suter clutch I use offers a similar arrangement, but they are dual, staked diaphragm springs, so you get more clamping force without such a dramatic difference at the lever.

I may have mentioned clutch problems before but it was something that happened once, maybe twice on a different kind of oil and I quickly looked past as it power wheelies in 4th and seems to have been solid with no issues. But now its slipping for sure no doubt about it.

I will have to get a new clutch cover and puck on top of the disks since its damaged from the slide. Might not make it to the newyears day drags as I cannot put that much money into my bike right now.
