Anyone ever try the ducabike slipper clutch
Wondering if anyone had any good input about which slipper clutch, I should purchase and which ones i should stay away from . Also it would be used for street riding . thanks guys .Also just found out that the ohlins front cartridges are in stock.But ,I was told i would have to send the forks to ohlins factory in hendersonville n.c ,which is no big deal its only 1hr from my house , just trying to get my mind set around 1,800.00 for the complete job.

Hands down EVR for the slipper clutch. Comes with everything you need to install (plates, basket, basket bolts, throwout bearing install, springs, caps, bolts, hub spacer with oring, both size nuts, etc...). No maintenence required. Long life. Looks good. Works good.

ducabike slippers work very well and you can purchase them pretty reasonable and they work w/ur stock clutch plates if you are reusing them.also have the evr and works very good as well.if you want a very easy clutch pull then go ducabike 5 spring.. clutch pull is butter even one finger!

I have the EVR slipper clutch on my Hypermotard and my 1098S and all I can say is WOW! It is the best performance part I have bought for both of my bikes.
Alex from Gutsy Performance gave me a deal on mine. He is a fantastic guy to work with.

The design of the Ducbike, Bucci, and the DP performance are pretty much the same with a ball & ramp design, & work well for both street& track, the advantage using these slippers is that you can use stock style 12t clutch plates, which are much cheaper to buy than the 48t plates.
I would stay with the 6 spring pressure plate, & get a slave if you want a softer pull, especially if you get into engine mods. Aloha Alex

I've installed a ton of the Surlfex slipper clutches on our bikes and customer bikes over the years. Simple install and a great feel. I'd have to say hands down the easiest clutch to install and maintain. They are on sale right now as well!
