Gravedigger (GSF-nick) , who develops and manufactures a lot of the German billet stuff, decided to make a clutch that overcomes the limitations of the PK-XL clutch. It is going to be available soon as Hartz4 or Hartz5 (4 or 5 Honda "sintered" plates). It comes with rep-kit and outer clutch basket. price: TBD

interesting marcus. what is he doing to improve over say the falc setup.Is it just the fact its using honda plates? Does he use the honda springs too? And how many plates and power was it designed for originally ?. As you know i had another clutch failure in race two.. if the sound is ok on the video you'll here how bad it was.

hi Tony, peace ;D plates are CR80, nsr50, xl185 etc. Re power capability: the clutch which this one origins from was a 7! plate clutch that dealt with 50HP (don't ask, I am just quoting ), scale it down and on paper the 4 plate should be capable of 29HP or 36 respectively for the 5 plate setup.

peace and love! ;D
thanks mate.. can you find out if he expects 5 to fit? i'll try to find out if there is a race alternative to these plates.I'm guessing if they are cork then i would say they arent designed for major slippage like i have to do..

I hope it's cheaper than the Falc... I'll be keeping an eye on this. Wonder if it's the same one Terry Wossname is advertising on his site?

I think anything cnc'd is gonna be big money.. mega work in that falc clutch. I expect to pay up to 350 euros for this. Its a basket as well remember. Thr drt one i use is what £200 alone I think.
