46,000 miles, my stock clutch began to slip. The old bird was 11 years old after all!

I put a Drag Spec. Kevlar clutch pack in it, and a +25% diaphragm spring LOVE IT.

My 06 was fine when I sold it with 22k. The new owner, 2 years later, is still using the OEM clutch.

63000 on a Street Bob and 31000 on the Sportster. Both of which have rubber mounted engines and still pulled fine. Keeping a good service routine is the key to long life with anything.

18,000 (just replaced a couple of weeks ago).
There was nothing wrong with mine, I installed an Energy One kit as preventative maintenance.

Around 20k after I did the 1250 conversion. Replaced it with the Energy One with stronger spring.

It was still working, rivets has not disintegrated, but it was not enough to hold the power of the 1250. When I pulled it the rivets were just barely starting to show signs of failure...and that was after riding it for a couple thousand miles with the 1250.

just shy of 40K miles and still using the original clutch on my 07 1200C. No problems so far.

Ride Safe,

I started having trouble downshifting and finding neutral at 38,000. I installed the Barnett with the standard spring. I ride like a Granny so saw no reason for the heavier spring.
