Title: Steel Clutch Plates
Post by: Larry Wiechman on August 10, 2009, 03:45:12 PM
Anyone know what OEM Kawasaki steel clutch plates can be used in a KX500 (89) ? I've seen a few aftermarket sets on Ebay, but would like to be able to get them from local dealer. (And dazzle'em with my parts interchangeability knowledge. :wink:)

Not sure there are any kawasaki steels, I use Barnett steels and kawi fibers.

can i also just note(it might be common knowledge) that some fibre plates do not like synthetic gear oil,too my expense i bought friction plates once and synthetic oil from the same place and the same time and within 1/2hour the plates had exploded leaving me with a seized box and another strip-down to find the bits..
