St3 Dry Clutch Decision

Discussion in 'Technical Help' started by SteelCityBaggie, Jul 3, 2015.

  1. I need new plates and basket on my 2004 dry clutched ST3. Now, the question is do I just buy cheaper after market 12 tab parts or do I spend a little extra on a 48 tab option, such as the ones at Speedycom Performance Ltd...

    Also, what is the difference between organic and sintered plates? I use my bike for touring and commuting, so I don't think a slipper clutch is necessary :)

    And finally, does anyone recommend a good clutch tool for occasional use? Would the one below fit the bill?

    Thanks in advance
     
  2. Sintered plates have bits of metal embedded on them.
    Useful if the plate is aluminium cos you can still pull it out with a strong enough magnet
