As I was saying...whether you choose to believe it or not, we have folks with lots of miles on these. I realize that I will always be perceived as biased, I can understand that, but I am also known for shooting straight with folks and I have no reason at all to manipulate or misrepresent information here. I call it how I see it, this is just the way that I am, and the Super-Twin is pretty damned amazing. Enough said...

For the original poster, its so good looking that I have one as a centerpiece in my kitchen table, that is destined for a 1000+ RWHP supra, waiting for motor to return from machine shop, until then it will remain there LOL.

I don't think anybody said you were biased, and according to Slohawk the clutch has proved its mileage far more than I had previously known...

As even more people like the OP start piling on the miles and the abuse, a good clutch like this will be proven to more and more people... Now, about the price.

That is where mine is sitting as well and I too am waiting for the motor as we speak. Should be less than 2 weeks if I am lucky.
