I don't know why but this thread seems like deja vu....I am not sure it was
on this list but I remember a lot of discussion about the advisability of
replacing the Carbon throw out with a roller or ball bearing and the
considered opinion of most was that this was not a good idea.... Something
about how the fork offers up the ball bearing
at an angle and the result is very short life. I've always found that if one
stays off the pedal at stop lights the life of the carbon is longer than that
of the clutch disc.....just my thoughts...
Cheers, Terry
