Factory! When all else fails, go with a stock one!

OEM, Do not waste your time or money on an aftermarket it will not last. When you replace it remember to replace the springs as well.

alright thanks. but what about stiffer springs will that help it?

01ZX12R · January 21, 2007, 05:59:23 PM

yes they will. Spring pressure makes a big differance.

so should i get stronger springs and oem clutch?

yes, that would be the best thing to do. Keep in mind that going with a stiffer spring is going to make the clutch a little harder to pull in, but at the same time it will keep more pressure on the clutch and keep it from slipping.

stock yfz's go threw clutchs real quick. i have been selling a lock up and cover for them and no more clutch problems. it also puts more power to the ground

Thats the best way to eliminate clutch slippage. That is the only thing I use on my street ZX12's and Busa's. It takes alittle power away from the engine because of the centrifical weight but at the same time it is transferring the power to the ground much quicker.
you have a pm
