I have the DP/Bucci branded lightweight slipper clutch fitted.

There was a thread recently on the 998 board recently about clutch take-up noise.

Same noise on take off and when giving it some stick a definate slip, but a little more worrying.....

I stripped it down this weekend for a clean and further investigation re clutch pack components. It is assembled as per the "road" pack in the literature. I.e. 1 convex plate at position 2.

However the basket is showing wear on the drive face caused by the action of the steel plates on the alloy body. I wonder if this is preventing a smooth transition from dis-engaged to engaged and the noise/slip is generated as a result of the plates not having "free" movement?

I feel a little word in the dealers ear coming up - they told me the standard clutch pack would be ok, mmmmm....

Slipper mechanism works a treat tho.
