    I got a heavy duty daiken and its great. Its slightly heavier than normal, but i can haul a massive trailer of wet clay behind me now and just kindly let the clutch out and the b!tch just grabs and bogs the motor down with no slipping at all and tears off.

    Nope, its been in a year or 2 now, me and my local mech had a bit of a chat and came to the conclusion that it was a good priced vs performance clutch. He bought it for me at trade price then, i only had a quick look at it and the box. As i said though the trade off is a heavier pedal which is crap in traffic jams, but sweet when your towing and you know its gonna grab.
