But by the time you take it off to check, you'll tell if it's a slipper or not by the presence of a spider spring on the centre hub (or not). :Facepalm:
With the cover off a quick visual of the spring caps will give an indication as to whether a slipper is fitted, the spring caps on a slipper tend to be almost flush with the preasure plate, a standard clutch will have about 10/15 mm of spring showing. Steve
Mine aren't flush. And 1.5cm of spring showing would probably have your ankle off. A bit like Boudica's chariot. ead:
My EVR slipper is almost level without a clutch pack, with a clutch pack fitted I would expect the collars to be even lower. The standard Boudica's chariot clutch currently fitted to my bike, as you can see the springs protrude 14mm ( not the best of pictures as the bike is up against the garage wall. Luckily they haven't torn my ankle to shreds Yet. Steve
Thanks for all your help guys, I've just had a closer look and mine is a slipper with flush fitting springs and a spider spring but can anybody identify the make. There's no name on the dark red pressure plate. It's got 8 driven and 8 friction plates which look really worn with only a fraction of a millimetre of sintred material. Do these look knackered to you guys. This clutch was really snatchy when pulling away at anything less than 3000 rpm. Thanks in advance for any advice.
Looks like a standard DP type slipper. The friction material is very thin normally. Doesn't appear TOO knackered. Dogs look a bit worn and basket quite notchy but seen worse.
