    EBC clutch kits? Anyone run one?

    They are cheap, but are they worth a darn?

    I'm using EBC fiber plates and stock resurfaced metal plates. No problems at all.

    I have an EBC dirt digger in mine with a magnum billet basket and HD springs. Works great. Seems to be a good kit.

    I put them in the TriZ last summer, but I usually get several years out of a Z clutch, so its early to come to any conclusions, but I chose EBC because their brake pads are the only think I have found that were equal to or better than OEM pads, and its seems the same aftermarket companies that make brakes also make clutches. I have found no other aftermaket brakes that were worth a crap, and of all the aftermarket clutches Ive used, none have stacked up to OEM, but the jury is still out on EBC clutches.

    I have heard the EBC clutch works well on the motorcycle forums I check into. The biggest complaint I have heard is that they work too well and that it is harder to slip the clutch then with other brands.
