Ok, Guys my clutch is slipping with only 3200 miles on it, Do I need a new clutch ? Is it a hard thing to replace ? What is the best one to get if needed?

It is a 15 sx , Only slips when on higher revs. it has lighter springs ? quick shifter, tuned and APH pipe more HP ?? Warranty LOL

Barnet make a clutch pack for the 1125 that I hear works well ??

Slipping all the time or only on the high end? The 15 and later revised slave and softer springs does allow a little slippage up top, which has had an effect on stock bike dyno results as well. I plan to go to some heavier springs and Oberon slave cylinder to counter this, but still keep moderate clutch feel. I also am switching to an 1190RS Accossato master cylinder because I have it though, so no idea if the MC will make any significant difference. It shouldn't.

Only slips when on higher revs. just ordered a 1125 clutch for it, I might shim the springs also.

Can't we just pull the green ones apart further, with some pliers? :astrosmiley:

I have read that you can add a shim washer to the springs to add compression weight to them. I'd go with a fairly thick, hard anodized aluminium washer over a steel washer to keep down the rotating mass, and to build a decent amount of spring tension.

I was going to do just that, I have done that on a few of my dirt bikes, Then I thought my EBR deserves better that that,. With a ad like this I wanted to be like the big boys.

My clutch was worn below min spec, had to be replaced with stronger springs and carbon clutch, hope to last longer than the first one at 3K. Too much power,thx D Adams tune & APH pipe.
