The best considered and proven clutch available at the moment is the AF one.

Through experience, I'm using the new AF one on my RB250 and it's magnificent. Rideouts are a doddle!
I've heard the Rocho ones are top notch and a worthy contender.

i have a AF clutch in my 20hp rb 20 road bike. I also have a LTH clutch for my drag bike- but I havent used this yet.
I know my scoot isnt as powerful as a rb25, but the finish of the AF clutch is extremely nice compared to the lth, and its very light. the AF looks like a jap bike clutch.
the AF has a very light feel as well, and doesnt at all slip- and i doubt it would ever slip with a RB25, unless it gets tuned very highly.
the only thing the LTH may have in its favor (according to a friend of mine who has an LTH) is that it smoother to take off with. The AF has a tiny movement on the lever before it goes, so with 1/4 miles it is hard to get off the line with slipping and high revs.

I use the GT clutch from Rich T...after trying 5 discs, camlam 6, tino 6...´simply the best IMHO:strong and smooth...I have one on my tuned TS1, a pleasure, the other one is for my targa if I don´t put the pulleys

I'm using an LTH 7 plate in my Mugello 225, maybe a bit of overkill, but it performs great and has a lever action about the same as a std 4 plate set up.
The AFR kit has been well thrashed in their group 6 RB250 racer and hasn't been touched in about a season and a half's racing, so more than up to the job.
The Rocho one sounds like it's gonna be great value too.
