I can see the possibilities of going one step further and going with a wet clutch pack just like a real bike. Now that would be cool!
Nice work Easy rider, you should be proud!
I don't deserve the credit. The credit go to SCSW/Pipelyne Manufactoring. I'm just helping him with the testing stages to make sure he's using the best material. That is the stock clutch set-up. We only changed the pucks. Some of the guys here have experimented with thick gear lube, Lucas oils and anti-seize. Me...I run mine dry for now but I plan on trying some ATF to see if that would work for a wet clutch.

Joe, Yes the stock clutch pucks are round. All of the clutches we've opened up so far use the round pucks. I think we have a winner with the material for the pucks. I abused my clutch on yesterday's ride (since its in the testing stages) and the shoes showed little to barely any wear on them.
