R1 5VY Spares, Clutch etc
As I'm now up and running and I've ironed out most of my issues (thanks to everyone on here I'd have been burgered with out you)
I'm starting to think of spares etc, over 1/2 of my proposed usage will be competition, sprints and hillclimbs. Its a proper ball ache to get 1
or 2 runs into an event, something breaks and the days over especially when most events are 3-4 hours away and you've parted with your hard
earned.
Some breakages are obviously terminal but things like cables, gaskets, clutches etc are all fixable and generally do-able in less than an hour so
I'd like to cover my options.
I'd like to fill a box with bits which may go, I'd appreciate users experience on parts which I might need, what should I put in it apart
from a clutch, accelerator cable, clutch cable?
What clutch parts should I buy OEM, EBC, barnet??? Plates, springs etc.
Can anyone recommend a good, reasonably priced supplier of these parts?

id recommend good thread loc k - since switching to the busa one thing i have noticed is the amount of bolts that shake loose - spare bolts of
everything is a good idea - or a way to double lock them.

I'd keep spares of what you've listed plus:
Plugs,
Coil packs,
Start Inhibitor Relay (black box relay thing)
Various Cover Gaskets / Instant Gasket if you're desperate
Locktab washers for sprocket & clutch basket
Clutch parts I use are the standard clutch plates, as this is what the Yamaha race kit uses, just replace the inner and outer thin jobs with full size
inner pack ones.
We use uprated clutch springs, not sure who makes them now but they are about £20 as set.
