78 750f clutch
« on: May 31, 2011, 07:57:35 PM »
any suggestions on what to get and where to get it????

I don't think I'll need the high performance model, but I'm not sure what the difference is between high performance and regular.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I'm not sure what kind of response you are really looking for.

If you have a stock bike and you're not a racer, there is really no reason to not just go with a stock replacement. Source wise, if you're going with stock Bike Bandit, Sudco, eBay or a dozen other sources carry the parts.

Mostly. They use the same plates. The K model used different springs up to engine S/N 3000557 after which they are also the same.

I got a nice APE clutch from dynoman.  I haven't installed it yet but it came with extra plates, springs and fibers.

The stock F2 clutch has a wide spacer-plate and stronger springs than used on the K-models...........
