Clutch throw out bearing

[Buckster]

Fitted a Baker heavy duty clutch throw out bearing today. 
 

See here!

 

It increases clutch disengagement and is supposed to slightly increase the lever pressure but I can’t feel any difference, it was a preventative maintenance job as stage 2 puts a lot more load on the clutch and the bearing tends to fail. Next job is the Barnet extra plate clutch kit as the clutch slips under power in fifth and sixth now.

I installed a Barnett clutch in my XS 400R & also in one of my Seca 550's....they worked awesome ...absolutely loved 'em.
