Out of Stock at Yamaha Dealers

This clutch kit cost 20% of what our dealer wanted. The retailer was sold out and gave 10 days to receive the poems the next day.

Pros
  • Good Stuff
Cons
  • Will post later

Absolutely disappointed

Terrible company to package this so the seal is no good now. waste of money. You would think for the money they cost they could afford a damn box. Pull yourself together!

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • Hard to tell

The kit is good but NOT the gasket

Parts fit well. My bike is still in development at the moment so can't speak to durability with these parts but so far so good. Don't worry about the padding, though. It's garbage and started leaking almost immediately. Get a better pad elsewhere.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • You could have chosen a newer model

Missing seals, starter clutch does not work properly

motorcycle starter clutch, did not receive any seals, the company only sent 1 seal, received 2 sets of sofa. Installed a starter clutch that slips. I will install a second set on another bike if I can get a gasket for it. So far I am not satisfied at all. What I saw is nonsense. I will not buy anything from this company again.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • piggy bank price

You get what you pay for cheap products at great prices.

The approval for this product is very low. The outer gear was too tight and could not be installed without destroying the needle bearing. Bent needle bearing. I was able to reuse some of the old parts to make this work. I will not buy this product again. You get what you pay for cheap products at great prices.

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • So-so

Perfect fit and much stronger than OEM

I have fitted 3 starter clutches on 1100 and this one was the best. All parts fit and the screws are the right length. Other kits could only use parts due to fit issues, but not this one. I suspect there may have been installation errors in the complaints and that's why it failed. This is a complex and detailed process, but there are videos on YouTube that make it very doable. But you must install correctly to avoid a crash.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Some small things

worked fine for 2 years

I bought this for my 2002 V-Star 1100 Silverado, I loved the kit because all 3 bearings work in harmony. I also found it good that a seal and new screws for the new torque are included. Everything went well. I turned the bike over and it ran a bit, I think my fuel pump fired but the bearing and cranking noise works just in time. I would recommend this kit if you are looking for the best you can afford. Will update if anything goes wrong before that, but for now I'm very thankful and happy with…

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Empty
