Yesterday, my clutch started going. My dealer doesn't have the plates specific to the R's slipper clutch, and I have a track day tomorrow. The plates look identical to the ones on a standard 749, which are easy to get. Can I use them with the R's slipper clutch? If not, is there anyone within a few hours of chicago that has them in stock???
749R clutch plates?

The clutch packs are the same.
www.section8superbike.com is in Michigan and should have them in stock.
just got off the phone with my dealer....he said the standard pack uses the 2mm steels, and 7 of the 8 in the R are 1.5mm's. I guess that makes sense because the fiche shows the R with 8 friction/8plain and the 749/S with 4friction/6plain discs.

Stack height is whats important.
I don't have a slipper clutch. But you want to be in the "Ideal" stack height range so the clutch will work properly. It's 38mm for the non slippers I believe. If you substitute some or all of the frictions from a standard clutch pack and are in the correct range then all should be well.
