It is a hefty,strong clutch.It's just smaller in diameter than stock.

Obviously the guy's not skimping on anything in the least- why would you think the clutch wasn't just as badass as the rest of the parts?That tiny diameter clutch will also allow a smaller,lighter flywheel,with just minimal outer material to hold the starter ring gear.

less rotational mass and having it all closer to the center of rotation = Revs like an R1.
revs will also drop like a brick so for the love of god don't miss a shift.

I figured that it was a quality item like the rest but I've just never seen or heard of that style clutch.

Thanks for edumacating me on it though

Men either.

I could sell that Tennis Ball Green thing and buy a proper car for its replacement.
