I think the price drop from Sutto’s is substantial,not sure if its comparable to getting from the US,but hopefully OBT may get a further discount as well,I would consider it if the price was right

AnonymousSutto’s have significantly reduced the price. Still not enough for me to be interested. It would have be like $200 or something so I didn’t care if I didn’t want it and could throw it in the garage.
Mal has just done me an awesome one off deal on a KTM alloy bash plate for my 300 as B&B do not re-open until the 18th of this month.

Buying from oversea’s is not allowed by the Rekluse company, they will not sell to you if there is a distributor in your country, I try it and they politely said please go to your local distributor
From Rekluse $629us($684au) plus postage ? comes out close to what Sutto is asking, ? Old Bulls price, you will probably end up with the same price as buying oversea’s anyway and you will be able to get Sutto’s great support if neededJanuary 7, 2010 at 10:12 am #167437medogrocket wrote:

January 7, 2010 at 12:40 pm #167012I’d love to see the ALDI version, if it is anything like the Digital TV recorder I brought from them the Rekluse would do some funny things, like lock up and need to power down to unlock, halfway through a fast full throttle corner decide it had enough and disengage, maybe not,yes oh yes, oh maybe not, get the picture! bloody piece of junk :angry:
January 7, 2010 at 1:42 pm #167013I’ve thought very carefully about one myself after talking to a Yank whom had one fitted to his trick YZ250, still am considering it for S/T duties especially, des anyone know how well it like abuse, as in fanning the clutch to exit a corner when you’re a gear too high?

I think the rekluse should handle the abuse of fanning the clutch. As long as the engine rpm is above the engagemnet rpm the rekluse will stay locked up. I found that I haven’t needed to fan the clutch yet. But I haven’t riden any rocky snotty hills yet either.

Bruce, it will provide the optimum amount of clutch slip as long as the throttle is wound on,it would turn the YZ into a razor thru the ST. On the WR it made hill climbs very easy,except for 1 at boyds trail in the Watagans :silly: eh moto :laugh:

There is no need to worry about the Rekluse, that type of work will not worry it, but if constantly riding in too high a gear using excessive clutch slipping will eventually damage your clutch plates as per any standard clutch, just remember the Rekluse does not turn your bike into an automatic.
I ran a standard z-start in a 550 Berg for a few thousands k’s when removed when I sold the bike the steel clutch plates were nice and blue, fictions were ok, I must admit I got quite lazy with gear changes and simply opened up the power of the Berg to over come being in the wrong gear, most times got me out of troubles, smaller cc bike would needed down shiftingJanuary 14, 2010 at 1:42 pm #167014Top article/pics Mal,Murphs ride will be a good tester,you’d be well and truly settled into the new set up by now.Your gunna be hard to chase through the tight stuff now mate.
