[QUOTE="kirrbby, post: 168028, member: 3972"] Very good points racerx. The main clutch does have rubber dampeners where the primary gear mounts to it. Not really adequate I don't think, but its something. When these clutches are run hard, especially when run as a full manual setup, those dampeners will be worn out. You can move the gear and the basket back and forth by hand power, in the worst cases...it'll be obvious. When the crank mounted clutch is eliminated, I think most guys will switch to a inner rotor stator setup, a small, Daytona style flywheel/stator, or a lightened stock flywheel. The racers seem to be the ones who like that super light crank setup. Some guys don't like it at all and miss the weight, and rotational mass. Eliminating the crank mounted clutch does eliminate the oil spinner. Like the doc has mentioned in another thread, you'd have to add a in line oil filter to the oil cooler setup, or even if you don't have a cooler. Throttle modulation is definitely still a good idea for most. But a racer is going to be pushing the limits. Having a clutch lever allows them to speed shift. I was getting at the possibility of adding a hand clutch lever to replace the clutch lifter/toe lever setup, on the stock semi-auto clutch. [/QUOTE]
