I finally installed my slipper clutch late last night, didn't have a chance to do a test ride. It's sure quieter with the aluminum basket instead of the steel.Anyone know of a good way to test this thing out short of killing myself if it doesn't function like it's supossed to? Also, is there some sort of maintenance that's required? It's a Desmo Corsa 4 spring clutch.The instructions were very vague and in Italian.

I'm pretty sure its got ball bearings, those need to be greased every once in a while.

To test, go kinda slow 30mph or so and down shift from 3rd into 2nd and you'll feel it slip. If it doesn't, the stack height could be wrong...

yeah stack height is critical...make sure it isn't slipping under hard accelaration either or you'll wear your brand new clutch plates very quickly. I had to play around with the metal shim plates quite a bit to get mine just right way back when...
