Not to everyones taste im sure, but it sure does grab some attention, and if you wanna stand out from your jap counterparts, just slap one of these on.

it sounded a bit like a normal japanese twin, no clutch sounds.
here is some low quality sounds, but gives an idea, and yes i should have probably used the choke to start the bike, but meh.

Roll on lots of surprised looking non-bikers when they hear what they think is your clutch falling out
Personally, I love them - makes a Ducat sound like a Ducati from three milesi off  ____________________ Avast! Pirates ahoy!

And when it is in neutral it makes a rather attractive rattling sound... [/quote]
Aye... I heard the rattle alright.
It's a very very nice open clutch cover thingy wave2k.
Admittedly, besides rattling I still don't understand what it's all about but I have no doubts in my mind that it's cool as fuck. Everybody else says it is so it must be.  ____________________ I want a big boys bike, preferably a Speed Triple. To date I have ?7:42p stashed away to put towards one.

I like the way the crash cover on that Gixxer is held on with alloy bolts
Guy I used to know called Zak Barry (Evolution 1) had a clutch like that on his old Gixxer, sucker made 161bhp and that was over 6yrs ago I think.

I don't know if it's just bad audio but it makes the bike sound knackered.
Looks cool though. |

I heard one on a monster, made the bike shound shit.
Isn't their main purpose to prevent the clutch burning out by allowing better cooling?

Open covers prevent a build up of clutch dust. |
