Ask any banshee owner with lock-up clutch, its made for one thing and one thing only drag racing, if you can even find one for your raptor, you will ruin all ride ablity, so unless your bike is set up for only drag dont even think about it. Lock-up clutches make it difficult to even drive to the drags. Plaus the raptor trannys are all that great anyway, why would you want to put a extreme about of strain on them?

I dont understand y they are drag only, all it does is keep the clutch from slipping. Please explain y it is drag only

You would really have to hear one in action, yeah i said hear one. Like i said find a banshee guy with one and pull up along side him and listen to him race, and soon as he dumps that clutch it makes the loudest bang when fingers "lock" on the basket it literally smacks into place and you can hear the bang of the clutch 30 feet away with your helmet on. Its definatley not good for a raptor, but its a hell of a ride on a banshee

I do not have experience with lock-ups, but I don't think I would want a lock-up unless I had an override tranny.
