Clutch Friction Plate...

Post by dougie »

Motobins offer an aftermarket friction plate "optimum quality, Italian made".
The saving is about $25.
Anyone tried one???
I've spent most of my money on women, motorcycles, and beer.
The rest of it I just wasted.

Yes, about 3000 kms ago. No problems. I also installed their cheaper diaphragm spring and my clutch action has never felt so good.

Thanks Charlie.
They also have an Italian made neutral switch for less $$$. I might try that as well.
