..im still saying to go with Sparks,i know with my 440,the stock one and i cant rember witch barnk it was,what ever rocktmountain sold,id waste in about 3 months...Sparks was in 5 months,and i dont think i even ever adj. it?..So yes im very hard on clutchs.I know the GT uses 8 plate set up,and it does fit in the stock basket,but i think he takes a little off the inner hub plate? to make room for the extra plate,and GT also says to replace your basket once a year. Id think if your going to do that,just buy a new basket,i think i saw one in Dirt Trash for 149.?..I know i went with the cheepest basket i could find..held up great..

 

why would I have to cange the clutch basket? mine is fine except for a few bumps made from the plates but no excesive wear.

 

..I dunno,iv heard that if you have a built motor,and ride a lot..should be changed once a year..Mine was about 15 months old when it let go,drag raceing,2 hour drive to Pismo,to ride for 15 min cuzz it blew. I know 3 guys with stock,piped ex's that drag race only,blew them, 2 of them had to buy new cases ,..i know when mine did,didnt damage the caeses at all,but i had to buy new chutch"sparks" ,new backet,new stock basket cuzz i needed the gear off it,new inner hub and pussure plate.....so some were around 500 to get me going again,should have just bet the buillet form the get go,sparks clutch and after market basket..would have been money ahead,and not waste a 2 hour drive to Pismo.

 

son oh a b*tch. now I have to add another $150 to my aftermarket parts list but guess it will be worth it considering the consequences.
