I plan to fit a open clutch cover with an anodised clutch plate to my 748R this winter, any recommendations on what & where to buy ? Also is it much work to fit ?

Not much work at all, and as it happens, I have a clutch cover, red pressure plate, and red spring caps I want to get rid of!

PM me if you're interested.

as much as it pains me, I have to recommend the kit consisting of open clutch cover/clutch plate and springs that JHP sell.It fitted nicely and I even managed to do it myself ( that's a bigger feat that I can describe! )

dead easy - takes less than 5 minutes. 10 minutes if you get tempted to pull out all the plates and wipe the dust out. 20 minutes if you have a cup of tea as well.

I'm certain Tony (TP) has a new and unused Speedymoto open clutch cover for sale, send him a PM.

Hi, This isn't a business.....I do this for FUN but if you send me your clutch housing (outer engine cover ) i can rework it to match my works corsa cover for £30 plus p+p. I did this to my own cover, but then bought a "works magnesium corsa part" I am a craftsman and if i do say so myself i couldn't tell the difference.....apart from the weight! P.M me if your interested, This goes for anybody on the list. I also know where you can get the correct shade of green or "baby **** yellow" paint! to match the works bike of the year of your bike. No vat he doesn't need to know.
Steve
P.S. this's not the outer cover but the main cutch housing!

My clutch bling on my old 749s, not everyones cup of tea and most will say the carbon gives no protection in a spill .... but I like it.

don't forget to mention when ordering that you have a 748R. the slipper clutch takes a different pressure plate without the teeth on the back. other than that, the springs and cover are the same. oh yeah, speedy moto gear is really good kit.

Hi, so what do you lads think?....It's not very shiney, but "works" housing, STM Slipper clutch, s/steel springs, MPL Titanium faced basket,alloy kevlar plates and "works" RS 996 steel outer cover!.......Not the flashest looking set-up but it works:)
Steve
PS, Not to mention the works/corsa 926cc (888) carbon footrests!!!

Hi

Does anyone know Steve or have any contact details for him? I have been emailing him to discuss getting this done but with no response yet?

Cheers

Whatever you do don`t go for the tarts handbag Gold look!

May one be so bold as to suggest a D.P clutch cover with a red presure plate and S/S spring caps with socket head cap screws, or a good equivalent such as JHP.
