slipper clutch

[hayabusapowered]

Question:

I am building a new A-Modified car for autocross that will be MC engine powered, R1 or busa. The question is: What model years of the busa motor come with a slipper clutch, or did they all come with one? If they all don't have it, what kind of $ am I looking at to add one?

Thanks in advance,

John

As far as I know, none of the Busa's have them. '05 GSX-R1000 had them though.

If it helps, they all come with a clutch that is designed to slip if too much much torque from the rear wheel is transmitted to the engine (stopping the rear wheel locking), although some people say it's not a slipper clutch.

It's the part labelled 5 on the attached fiche.

All Busas come with a slipper clutch from the factory.

They come with a non locker clutch there is a big difference.

Whoa, I'm confused!  What's the difference between a slipper clutch and a slider clutch?  I thought the Gixxr 1K just debuted the slipper clutch this year.  Not true?  With the idea being if you bang down through too many gears going into a corner and dump the clutch, the clutch plates were designed to "slip" a bit so the rear wheel wouldn't lock up and highside the rider.  Or do I have this all wrong?

Slider clutch comes in at a certain rpm. No clutch lever. It's works off arms with weights on them. As the basket spins faster the arms start to come in and the arms push the pressure plate in causing the clutch to lock up. Totally different than a lockup. MTC makes both. I run a lockup on my dragbike now and may go to a slider next year.

just like a go-kart. or automatic transmission bike.

The new 1000's and the Busa(all years) both use what is called a back torque limiter clutch setup AKA "slipper clutch"
