You never shared that with me when you were over here at the house. And I even let you tap into my internet connection with your laptop. I thought you were my friend! bonkonhead :cheers:

Well, I got the EBC Street Racer Kevlar clutch disk setup with springs I'll be installing in the next week or two. I'll let you know how it does. I've got an eighth mile near me too so I'll try it out when I get it installed and the carbs rebuilt with the jet kit.

BTW, is it an eighth or a quarter mile track you go to?

I wanna say it was Starcycle.com's eBay store. The EBC SRC is definitely alot cheaper, with kevlar friction plates, but it only comes with the friction plates and springs, not the 8 steel plates that are in there that you may need to replace depending on the age/mileage of your bike. Mine has 22k on it, and last time anything was done to the clutch was like 12-14k ago, so I've got some steel plates that thatkid is letting use if I need to replace my steel plates (thanks again, Nate!). I'll try to do a write-up on installing the EBC SRC as I install it and my Factory Performance Shift kit.
