Time for a new clutch

[aznpsuazn]

Depends on your driving style. If you often do flat changes, hi rev dumps and shifts, and generally give your clutch a beating, go for the HD. A stock clutch wont hold very well. You should be asking yourself why your clutch is about to give up, is it because of your driving or its done its long service. They can last for a long time if driven without 'poppin 2nds'

It's nearing 100,000km now and as far as I know it's the original clutch. I got the car about a year ago and the clutch was fairly worn then. It's not slipping in the higher gears yet, but it's certainly not bitey. I look after it as much as I can but I'd love to be able to dump it every now and again.

I'm not sure just how bitey a new Honda clutch will be, nor how heavy an HD clutch is. It makes it a hard decision. One thing I've got out of my research is that it seems either way I wont be disappointed.

If it aint slipping, dont replace it yet. Unless you are wanting to put a heavy duty one in. When I got my car, I thought the clutch would need replacing, but 50,000kms later its still ok (probably will eventually need to be done in the next year or so).

Just out of interest, how long has a clutch lasted for someone? Mines got ~145,000kms on it and as far as I know, its the original clutch.
