thankyou so much what a interesting article, the clutch is a must in ts1 & above, i myself have spent my last 30 years (gold watch award) working in high tech & precision engineering on a large industrial scale for the M.R.O
so i understand the effort these guys have gone to , so the can produce such high spec items
do we know of anyone on this forum who is running one of their units & what would the complete price be for a clutch system.... crown,spider,set of plates,springs etc..... all ready just to drop in
any other advice on the right set up for my needs would be welcome
regards bigpete

I run the clutch in my race scoot....its a group 6 TS1 225 and the clutch is a peach.

Foxhat spider is £150....so if you have a 5 plate clutch already, then all you need is an extra plate and a steel. If you buy everything from scratch....the you need a spider, crownwheel, 6 plates, 5 steels, 1 top steel and set of springs. Cost will be approx £250 (ish ??) Just phone or email the guys at FOXHAT, tell em Dan & Sean from Scooterotica sent you, and they will advise accordingly......and you can ask them about your engine requirements also....the RB250/260 may just be what you're looking for.

Let us all know how you get on
