Has anyone found them a little too grabby? Given that Kevlar has a waaay higher coefficient of friction than rubber-impregnated cork, this may be a valid concern. What about synthetic oil issues. I also read somewhere that they were accused of making the oil really dirty or some sort of "contamination." Is there anything about the feel, behavior, or performance of either of these two materials that makes you wish you still had cork over Kevlar?
I am going to have the case off my engine at some point soon to check the cam chain and replace a faulty neutral switch. That will give me the opportunity to do something to the clutch if I so choose. The clutch works okay so far. The bike is certainly drivable with the stock clutch, so I don't really have to do anything at this time.
I have been wondering about shimming, putting in extra plates, or going to Kevlar. If the latter, then should I bother with buying new springs, or do the Kevlar plates perform nicely with the old stock springs, or would the springs be fatigued and worn out?
Does anyone here prefer the previous two options? If so, why?
