Hey Scotty,

That is definately what the Rev-Loc is good at “not stall on hills and when you jam on to much rear brake in corners”

Gents,

I stated in post #107075 that the Rev-loc replaces 2 fbre plates in your clutch stack. I was incorrect it actually replaces 3 fibre plates and 2 steel plates and in approximately 11.5mm thick and placed in the centre of the clutch stack.

Sorry about that but i like to get the facts right. :huh:

Cheers,

Lefty

Gent’s

I have had some more information sent to me regarding the manual (Cable) operation of the Rev-loc from the Australian distributor as Quoted below;

“I have my clutch gap set with my cable. If it is not trying to go I back the gap off. If it stalls I give it a bit more gap.

It will bed in over the first twenty hours and you will end up with a bit more gap.”

I must state that have nothing to do with Rev-loc either directly and/or indirectly and are just investing my experiences and knowledge with those who are thinging of investing their hard earned cash in a clutch of this type.

I must say that I have ridden Chris’ KTM400 fitted with a Rekluse and found it to be very good also. However i was prepared to spend around $400 for a Rev-loc Dyna Ring and not $900+ for a Rekluse to find it was not what I wanted or thought it would be. It will still take a little time to adjust to but as TB has mentioned to me, which i agree with, is that I will be using it as per normal and will only take advantage of it for rear braking and some tricky hill situations. Other than that it will be clutch as normal.

I will keep you posted as to how it ends up. From a value for money and durability point of view.

Great write up STM. I couln’t have put it better myself. And it would’ve taken me 3weeks to type that.

Yes you can roll start their bike, i think hydraulic clutch only, but don’t quote me on that. You can purchase separately a cover which goes on the master cylinder with an adjustable screw which takes up the clearance in the clutch stack. Then once started you then de-adjust the screw to revert back to the Rev-Loc. Not sure if this is available in Australia though and for which bike but i am sure Gerald from Rev-Loc Aus will be able to guide you better on that.

Hey Nick,

The beauty about the Rev-Loc is that you have confidance in being up a gear in some places and the thing just hooks up with less wheel spin. :woohoo: :woohoo:

Hey TB,

It is similar to a Rekluse in the way it operates, however it replaces two of your fibre discs in the centre of your clutch stack. You use the std clutch basket and some of your steel plates. They supply you in the kit with 4 steel plates (which you must use). It also comes with a couple of spacers to put under your pressure plate to set up the correct height (gap) which is between 1.0 – 1.5mm. I have mine set up at 1.0mm which creates a little too much drag at idle at the moment but wiil sort it out by adding a spacer to increase the gap. The Rev-Loc then ramps up as RPM increase to take up the gap created on initial set-up.

I will get some pics organised a litte later.

Cheers,

Hi Adam,
It cost $395.00 plus delivery and i got it from Rev-Loc Australia. They are at Fairy Meadow I think from memory. :dry: They have a web site and Gerald is more than happy to help. They also take only about 15-20min to install.

Cheers,
