I always use Barnett's clutches. Haven't ever had to replace a KDX's clutch plates though.... I did get heavier clutch springs 'cause the 95's were weak (came out that way)

Barnett and DPK are both great quality. They are a tad more pricey than EBC, which is a good clutch as well. There are other brands out there, but these are the 3 I have direct experience with.

Most of the clutches we replace are replaced with an EBC dirt racer clutch kit. Mostly because of the cost. MX, Offroad with riders of all different skill levels and riding styles. We've never had a single complaint (we haven't had any multiple complaints either :lol: ) with any of these brands.

I'll say that I opted for a Tusk set because of the price. While I'm happy with their other products the clutch kit was junk. I had to file every one of the plates to get them to fit in the basket. I do have a hinson basket, and didn't have the OEM to test but I'd stay away from that. Barnett's are reputabley the best.
