well I put these little shims in to try and make the clutch last a little longer, I have 213 miles so far. We will see what happens :confused:

I want to put some of these in mine but going to wait till the dealer checks it out !! I have around 800 miles on it and the clutch is hanging up when I stop sometimes !!

Oh man that sucks, from reading diffrent posts it might have deep grooves and the plastic slider thingys could be toast

Yeah I had same problem with STM on Z 1 engine , honestly think it is a waste of money to buy those clutches . They are way to overpriced....IMO
But they look good . LOL

I put new plastic slides and the shims on my 4 seater, have 350 miles on it and already had wear marks on primary, so hopefully these shims save the day.
