Clutch Hub replacement or clutch mod ?

[c10]

Planning next upgrade after a incident with the back torque limiter . One part is $214 from APE , and the other is $399 . I think the clutch hub is lighter as it is all aluminum.
Who has done this , and might have the stock hub to weigh ? Thanks

Weld it.

I'm not opposed to that, but it would still be steel. That weighs more than aluminum.
My machine shop would charge me 1 hour to weld it. Trying to figure out the weight savings of the two listed above.

Welding is only $35 plus shipping and there is also that locking ring and springs for $79. I’ve been looking at this for the last 2 weeks. The Brock’s part looks amazing, but I find it to be a lot of money for that part.

I debated this for long time I cheeped out and bought the ring.

What is the Ring? The 214 ape part is same as Brocks. I like Jay better than Brock.
Here is a photo of the two parts. Middle, and lower of page.

what's the benefit to the hub vs. the cam?

 

[c10]

Spoke to Pat @ APE hub is lighter as no bolts used. Hub is a wearable item for those that didn't know. How much lighter is not known.
APE hub has oiling holes. Not all makes hubs have oil holes. I'm not sure if a gen 2 hub has oil holes, and neither did Pat.

Bite the bullet and get the hub!
Yeah, it's 399, but it's the real deal, no screwin' around with half ass measures there.
Personally, I'd get the hub, but I'd have to save for months for it lmao!

if you are using your bike more for cruising, aim for the lock ring.

Multistage Clutch????

yes... I say this because c10 has a lot of money invested into his bike lightening it up and he probably has plans for the bike down the road anyhow...……… one less thing to pay for later on.

I hung up my drag racing days. It's for weight loss. Also to dump the back torque limiter.

I have friends with that modification made in their busas and let me tell you it's worth it. With that mod the Engine awakes in an incredible way

HI. I am using the MTC Gen 2 clutch. You still need the inner hub and the outer cover that you can get in carbon fiber!
