And, duh, when I first tried to test those links I couldn't get them to work, but that was because of the Google toolbar blocking pop-ups, so you just have press the Ctrl button whilst you click on the links.
But I'm sure you all knew that.

If thats the guys in Germany who make baskets with titanium inserts I'd say they look quality but havent fitted the basket yet. I'm not sure if i'll need a bigger clutch cover as they warn that you may need one.

They stock baskets and plates and pressure plates separately, but the baskets are plain anodised ergal, no Ti inserts.

These come from Italy, not Germany.

Got a link to the kit you bought, wayned?

Well Bucchi carbon plates are well over £140.00 and an ergal basket would be over £100.00. Not a bad buy. What would concern me was the ergal of the basket. If its not matched with the plates, it won't last long even though they are ali friction plates.

Well the 'stock' (ie, non-slipper) STM clutch I ran had an ally basket and steel plates, and that lasted OK.

I thought it all looked OK, although you've got to factor in fairly hefty P&P charges. but I don't need a clutch *just* yet, and I hoping someone else would be the guinea-pig!

BYW, the term "slipper" is sooo boring. I think we should all start using the German term "anti-hopping"!

Being a slipper helped , if it was a std grabby clutch it wouldn't have lasted very long

Your one of the lucky ones then, my basket lasted less than a 1000miles
