Default Found out why my clutch was slipping !

Some may remember, I went to the dyno end of last year for final tuning, but had clutch slipping problems.

I guess a cracked pressure plate would cause that !

8 k easy miles on the clutch and pp

Yeah. And I think you said you were going to use copper/ceramic too a while back. This is what I have(6 puc, solid hub) - it is fine on the street for a little bit with no traffic.
