Gigot Slingshot

Can someone explain to this NEWB just how badazz this clutch is and why....

It is a lock-up clutch made for high HP and race applications.  If you aren't running big power, you probably don't need something like that, not yet anyway.  It uses the centrifugal force of all the ball bearings to force the clutch plates to clamp tighter as the RPM's increase.  Pretty smart design if you ask me.  Big plus is it's the only lock-up that fits under the stock side cover, all the others require a custom cover.

SandDragon on here is running one. Lets just say.. He beats the CRAP outta his.. Like.. 2nd gear hitting the rev limiter launches. and she's workin like a beauty

From what I gather, its nothing you'd want to invest in on a 3-mod bike... But when you start mod'n the engine, the gigot is tough and can get the power to the ground....  Right or wrong?

It doens't hurt now.. But you'll better see the benefits w/ a modded motor
