took scoot out today and did around 75-85 miles at all speeds and conditions (town and dual carrigeway), i even held it for 10-12 miles at 85mph and i found this clutch as good as i hoped it would be , its as easy to pull in as a std and can cope with as much grief as you can give it.
i am amazed by the ease of how it handles all thats thrown at it.
thanks lee
roll on ireland as the final test

Looks smaller than RS125 plates and 8 tabs.
Are these clutches now based of Lifan 125cc Monkey bikes parts like the Siagon one?

would they work with a standard Li type plunger / chaincase set -up.

quick update i pulled my motor today to change the drive side oil seal and thought i would check the clutch out while i was in the motor, i am pleased to say there was no wear at all after a very hard 600 miles on final finished unit
roch68's clutch after 600 miles with no wear by
mark & anne's photos, on Flickr
on a by note the readspeed 6 plate i was running needed changing after 500 miles as it was worn out , saying that jerome did say that its not designed for a 40bhp motor so i was happy to change as and when i needed to.

hi corrado , after several problems with supply / home etc im finally back up and running , there are some new design features which include an all new cast aluminium basket currently being made to my design , a new lazer cutter is also in place as the last one proved to be slightly unreliable !
as for the five plates , i have a few now in tuned bikes with no issues that im aware of and the 6 plates in the dac lambrettas , so fingers crossed everything now will start progressing !!!
cheers lee
