Clutch basket cushion rubbers

(1/3) > >>

vehmulski:
Anybody have any thoughts on the material used to manufacture clutch basket cushion rubbers. The oil and temperatures involved could Viton be suitable if a little expensive?

kevski:
There is a guy in OZ that makes from Viton for the Kawasaki 650/750 motors, i done my brothers 750 Zephyr basket, they worked a treat.

Thanks,
Sounds promising.

I have p.m. TTR400 regarding availability of cushion rubbers, he says -

Hi Mike,

Not at this time. the first batch i did could not hold up to the heat and hot oil. broke down after around 10.000 km's.

I have now sourced the correct material and will soon be doing a test etc.

Regards Kevin (ttr400)

Hmm, four years since the first batch proved problematic.  He must be as busy as I am...
