Hi chaps

Does anyone have an 'discount', 'on-line' source of fireblade clutch plates?

Thanks

I believe using Genuine Honda clutch plates is the way to go - should last longer and so be more cost effective in the long run. They aren't too dear from a Honda dealer are they??

Whatever you do don't be tempted to go for EBC plates. There's plenty of threads if you search of people eating them up in no time.

As Paul says the Honda ones do tend to work the best. If you want aftermarket then Barnett are supposed to be pretty good. I bought a set but haven't worn out my Hondas yet! Got mine from PDQ

Consider upgrading the springs too to the uprated Blackbird ones if you haven't already to eliminate slip.

genuine plates as said, I use david silver, if going for uprated springs which I would also recommend make. sure you get the right ones as there are I think it's 2 lengths depending on model
