Ive herd conflicting info about installing a kevlar clutch. I just put one in my bike and some day run it at lower rpms for 800 miles to "break it in". Is this true?

 

The clutch doesn't care about rpms. It only cares about how hard you are on the throttle. I would roll the throttle a little easier for a while until it seats in.

 

Ok cool thanks for the info. I been riding alot and just keeping shifts under 5-6k rpms on the 636. Just wanted to know if its really needed. I know oem disk dont really need much break in. Didnt know about kevlar

 

If it needed any special break in procedure, I would think the manufacturer would provide it with the parts, or at least on their website.

 

Finally got in touch with a tech guy at ebc. He said to ride in the lower rpms until 200-300 miles (kinda what demon was saying). After that the kevlar clutch fibers should be seated good and I can ride at any rpm I want to.

When I installed the new clutch I put in new oil, ebc tech says I dont have to dump oil after break in on the clutch. I can just ride on after "break in" and change as regular.
In case some one might have the same question...

Im only speaking for the ebc kevlar clutch kit I used only, I cant speak for other type clutches.
