Clutch Disk (What Brand)
Posted: 09:31 pm Sep 23 2010
Need a new clutch for my kdx 220 2002. Just a weekend rider some track time. Whats the best brand at a good price? :?
I prefer OEM clutch discs. I have experienced issues with EBC and Barnette plates and kits. For example: I installed a Barnette Kevlar kit in a YZ 490 and the overall stack thickness dimension was well short of the *worn* OEM stack. Of course, the Barnette kit did not work correctly, and I ended up installing an extra spent disc to get the whole thing working. The number of discs in the Barnette kit was correct. The discs were just much thinner than the OEM items.
I would also stay away from Heavy Duty springs. These can cause issues as well by causing the pressure plate to flex, causing drag during disengagement.
