i will be running it in 2 weeks. it just showed up on my doorstep today only thing i didnt realize when i bought it was its basicly a puck design. its not a full face disc like the rst or the street twin. so im guessing its kind of going to be an in or out type clutch.

I sent you a video about the RST that I found on youtube. I think this will be a great clutch. Let me know what you think.

just finished the install of mine and its great thus far. way better then my single was. pedal pressure is almost non existant. and the bitch grabs. not to hard though where u cant give it a little slip on the way out. overall first impressions are very good.

My twin disk is holding up really well. I have had mine in for probably 20 thousand miles so far and it holds just fine. The mcleod adjustable master cylinder is a piece of SH*T but other than that the clutch is good. I am on my third master cylinder and now I am not using a mcleod. FYI

I am also running a twin disk mcleod. It takes some beat downs, however is still tolerable to drive in traffic to work. It does take a little getting used to, calf muscle wise.
