R1 Slipper Clutch

[Darkman]

Anyone know where I can get a slipper clutch for a 2006 R1. I know the R1-SP has one in; is that a yamaha part or will any one do.

Get a dog, he'll find your slipper for you - sorry couldn't resist the urge

Some of the 'Merican sites have online parts catalogs... They should have the info you require for the reverse torque limiting device...

Here's one I found some info a while back...

maybe you should get a dog and let it pull you up the hill..maybe this way you will be a bit faster...sorry could not resist.
don't get a bulldog though....too much power for ya I think. Think you should get a chiwahwah..mmmm..and maybe a yellow purse!

cheers for that...
On the site they say "In order to assemble the clutch kit you need the original friction material and basket ". What is that?....

[Deano]

Basket carries the plates as far as I know. Friction material is the plates ?

Why do you want, or need a slipper clutch mate ?

As you know have alot of trouble with my left hand . Find it hard to change gears down and when I do manage to do this I can't let the clutch go out slowly. I have to just drop it and this caused me to lock up the rear a few times.

Aha - all clear now. I didn't think you would be banging it down gears close to the limiter.

Have you tried keeping a few revs on it when changing down, so it doesn't drop to idle when the clutch disengages ? That might help.

I have ordered some new levers that can adjust quite closely to the handle bars. They might help..cause that means I can grip the bar and the clutch at the same time and let it out slowly. Will see how they go first before getting the slipper clutch.
Not reving the bike to the limiter...going up the takkas in second to about 9k. on the 35 corners I need to drop to 1rst and this is where it sometimes happens.Will try keeping revs up next time...it does drop to low cause it takes me about 3 seconds to change to 1rst.

You blipping the throttle? Not sure if you right hand is bad but thats just applying a little throttle to bring the engine revs up before dropping/releasing the clutch

I know you hand was damaged in an accident am I right? What have you used to rehabilitate it, I am currently using a powerball to get some strength in my hands and wrists as have been off the bike(longer rides) for a long time and after todays few hours in the saddle were a little sore.

aahh man..my left hand is pretty farked...had 70% 3rd degree burns..nearly lost my arm. All I can pritty much do is move my thumb and index a bit.Have about 85% function in my right arm, so is good.
I normally blip the throttle when gearing down..but only that moment as I am pushing it down..once pushed into first, it still takes a bit of time 1-2 seconds to position my hand to let go of the clutch..in that time the revs has dropped again I'm sure.

try one and you will love it

have a look www.suterracing.com

I guess you won't find many dealers in OZ or NZ, so try to google for anti hopping kupplung (german for slipper clutch).

if you got the money go for one, otherwise you can increase the idlee speed (if possible) as well!!


good luck
