Can you please repost it again
Thanks
I wonder if the new clutch assembly would retrofit without modification into previous models. Although slight, I can feel a difference in the pull of the already light lever. Someone with a hand problem may benefit possibly. (like me
Don't know. Popgun is the parts guru- he could probably compare the fiche to see if the surrounding bits look the same. And then off course- the cost of the parts is a big factor.
slipper clutch is what you need coming into turn 10A at Rd Atlanta, from 175 mph. not sure what it's use would be for street riding.
I was hoping Marvincon would do that himself, PowerDubs
I'll look at the drawings though. Having a '17 service manual would most likely help too.

I was comparing the two drawings a few weeks ago, I should have said.

They're popular with street riders who ride on the street like it's Road Atlanta.
Ok, so in comparison we can reuse some of our existing parts- but several more will need to be purchased.

for a total of $274.76- use the 10% off coupon and you can have a slipper clutch for $247.28 and a Saturday afternoon for install.
I guess my question is- has anyone rode a bike with a slipper clutch? How effective is it?
Does it take a situation that would normally have complete rear tire lock up to function or will it lessen the blow when I am a little too aggressive with downshifting and my wife bangs my head? ;P
