I am about to change my clutch as its started slipping, its a TS 1 230 motor with between 20 - 25hp I reckon, fitted with a 5 plate clutch, Taffy springs and AF centre spring at the moment, I am looking for a set up that will last a while, easy on the wrist and is good for long distance with standard type plates etc as my Misses 200 Rapido uses a 5 plate as well so would like to keep a similar set up for ease of carrying spares for both scoots, so want to stay clear of the new AF, LTH type clutches, so many set ups out there what would work ????

At the moment I have a Cambridge 47t lightened rear sprocket, not the extra deep, 16t front sprocket. Li 150 Box

Good advice that, stick with the same supplier for all the clutch parts as they are designed to work together. I had a mix and match clutch and could'nt set it up right, so i bought the whole lot from one supplier and all is now well.
