    I just picked up a shiny new '23 YZ125X and plan to install a Rekluse TorqDrive clutch pack asap. I understand replacing a worn clutch basket but is there any performance advantage to an aftermarket basket over a stock one at this point? Was there any particular reason for your choice of a Wiseco basket over the Rekluse? Inquiring minds need to know.

    • @dirtniron
      @dirtniron  Год назад

      hi, I would get full rekluse setup but they dont make basket for my old 2001 YZ125. The clutch pack is really good, more durable and stronger than stock, plus it comes with those metal sleeves so it actually protects your stock basket and it lasts much longer. My old basket was notched out badly. Wiseco was one of few companies who made tough billet basket for my bike, plus they have great quality stuff so I got their basket. I think you are fine with stock basket and rekluse torqDrive clutch pack, unless you are going to really abuse that clutch so maybe better upgrade to billet one. Rekluse has super durable clutch for "abusers" that comes with everything, checkout this video for good info about their stuff ruclips.net/video/-3A4Sy-qlyc/видео.html

    Dirt and "Iron"? I mean, yeah there's some iron in there among all the Aluminum, Magnesium, and various alloys made up of the two. Sure, a lotta internals like tranny shafts, gears, forks, shift drum/rotor and such are ferrous alloys... so yeah, there's some iron,... just questionable as to whether it's a sufficient amount to warrant a name/moniker. At any rate, it's obvious you've turned quite a few wrenches, and for more than a time or two,... you're sharp bro. You're good!
