One of the largest complaints that I get is this... poor customer service!

I can say that if you choose us for the next clutch you will NOT be disappointed!

I'm running a ClutchMasters stage4, awesome clutch and holds very well. I'm also running an aluminum fidanza flywheel.

X2 completely. I SPEC sucks my balls. I had a Stage 2, that was toast after 6 or 7 passes at the track.

I now have the street-twin, and it ROCKS!!!!!!!!!! And you will hear people say "it's an 'on-off racing clutch'". Blah, it's not that bad. Doesn't take long to learn the friction point, and after that, it's a breeze to drive.

Default New Clutch

Competition Clutch has a great clutch for slightly modified engines. Our stage one will hold up to 500 horsepower and is still as smooth as stock. It is an organic clutch with a forged steel flywheel. Let me know if you are interested.

I've had 3 Ram Twin Disc's destroy themselves, one on the dyno tuning within 10 miles, one after breakin at 600 miles and the third one at 1,000 miles. Ram never stood behind any of them.

Running a RPS carbon fiber twin now.
