Oh I hear ya, I’m retired as well never raced bikes except for the occasional pass at the track, but raced cars since high school and officially retired some years ago due to a variety of circumstances.Uploading a video explanation . Our performance was not of standards .
@Dopey I answer what happened with the back torque limiter buddy .
In honesty I little desire to make passes on RJ due to the abuse the clutch sees .
After years of drag racing myself , and being a small teams crew chief/ engine builder / tuner .
My days are done especially when the two local tracks have really gone down hill in terms of prep.
Also the cars allowed on test / tune days usually oil the track down several times . To much shut down time from mismanaged track .

When you do your clutch mod Bryan, please do a decent video on it, I just researched the videos on You Tube and they leave a lot to be desired...
Nice vid mate.
Greg I will do my best for a video . However no kids at home to be my camera man , and pausing is not figured out by myself yet . The old Sony phone allowed me to pause , and restart when ready to continue . It died though .
I'm going big though with the entire billet inner clutch hub . No inner parts to break or studs to fall apart .

I could pay you via paypal for the parts, then you order it to get the free shipping in the US ?
Would that be the best way?
I'm not sure if I can pay by credit card on their website and specify your mailing address, and if they will send it free postage?
