Even if it holds, it won't hold for long. Don't toast it, upgrade it. Have you upgraded the csc?

The plan is to upgrade the CSC along with the clutch, hopefully by the end of the year. It is simply a matter of money and timing.

With the 305 RE-11 rear tires, they should get some pretty good grip so I will need to be mindful of the clutch until it is upgraded. Planning on going with the OS Giken twin disc setup and the HD CNC CSC from Z-Speed (I think that is who has the csc kit). I've been talking to a local shop that I trust and they are willing to help out with the clutch mods. They already know I'm crazy (I get it from my dad).

And then there are the brake upgrades..........$$$$$$$$$$$$

My wife is going to be scared sh*tless! She thinks the stock car is too fast, HA!

Make sure you get a video of her freaking out the first time you punch it.

Back in the days when we had a Kawasaki Concour (1000cc sport touring bike) she would fuss at me for going to fast all of the time. It was pretty quick but not near as violent as the Honda V65 Magna that I had before the Concour. The V65 was the first 10 second street bike that came out. It was fast but the handling was terrifying!

I'll see what I can do about hiding my Mobius camera on the dash. It should make for an "entertaining" video.

I'd consider looking at the RJM Performance heavy duty clutch master cylinder as well. It should be ready by the end of this month, so there should be some feedback by the time you're looking to upgrade.

I had not heard about this yet! The RJM pedal is fantastic so I will definitely be looking into this too. Thanks!!
