just ordered my clutch accessories!
Thought I'd share some enthusiasm check em out. I went with gold spring caps for the plate as well. Clutch Cover is from MPL-tuningparts.de Great German company (who does have English speakers to make communicating a breeze) and the plate/springs and caps came from carbonworld.de who's site has a full english version. I don't know how both ended up from German companies, but they did.

Lovely. Hope you'll post pix when you get 'em mounted.
And that is the 2nd bummer about the GT's (and newer Sport's) wet clutch. No cool sound. No cool looks. Just a particularly blah bulge on the engine casing.  (Still, it does work great!)

That's the 2nd (main) reason why I didn't get the GT -or newer Sport, for that matter- and bought my Sport1000just recently. I had planned on holding off for one or two more years, but then, missing out on that gorgeous assymetric swinsarm (1)  and the sound & looks of the dry clutch (2) I felt I had no option

Good to know, they seemed very nice and their covers are billet and really inexpensive for how nice they look.

Clutch parts arrived today! As did my Nikon D70. Impeccable timing! I can brave the weather and put the parts on this weekend AND be able to take high res shots of it.
