AndyB Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 What kind of paint did you use? Is it still holding up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veefer800Canuck Posted June 24, 2013 Author Share Posted June 24, 2013 Dupli-colour Metalcast paint. Gives the appearance of anodizing. Available in several colours. And yes, it is holding up perfectly. Not a single flake, drip, run or other imperfection. 15,000 kilometers on the bike since this mod.

AndyB Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 I have used the metal cast. Thanks for the heads up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluegen1e Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 great write up. love the clear case... any chance of making one for a 4th gen? My 95 viffer with 20k just started giving me clutch issues. the clutch only engages when I pull it all the way back. I use to just pull with two fingers but now I have to grab with all 4 and pull it all the way back to shift. It's also bit hard to go from neutral to 1st even with it pulled all the way back. just doesn't engage. I had the fluid flushed but still the same, albeit it did make it a ssslightly better. I was going to order a EBC SRK rebuild kit and give it a go, but would LOVE to get some opinions before I make the investment. thanks guys!

Veefer800Canuck Posted October 5, 2013 Author Share Posted October 5, 2013 i don't make the covers, you'l have to talk to SebSpeed about that. And yes, they have been made for the 4th gens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEBSPEED Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 I actually designed the covers for the 4th gen in the first place. They will fit all (big)VF's, VFR's, RC30/45, and more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer MaxSwell Posted October 5, 2013 Member Contributer Share Posted October 5, 2013 What's the consensus on average clutch life? Im in excess of 74,000 miles and never removed the cover... (I was wondering this back at about 50,000 but never got around to doing anything) The '01 that ate the deer had 105xxx mi when totaled; the clutch was working fine and had never seen the light of day.

Member Contributer thtanner Posted April 25, 2014 Member Contributer Share Posted April 25, 2014 Just swapped the wife's clutch @ 75k; the friction plates were crumbling a bit to the touch, so I would imagine it needed doing at 65k or so. Maybe it was ridden hard, but it's 110% better after the swap. This guide really helped ease me through the job (thanks!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veefer800Canuck Posted October 6, 2017 Author Share Posted October 6, 2017 6 years later and 34,000 km later and the Ferodo/EBC/OEM clutch combo is still going stong. And Seb’s clesr clutch cover is flawless. No leaks and looks good! No staining in the lexan window, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ariesblade Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Does anyone know the part number for the ferodo friction plates for a 00-01? I cannot find them anywhere. Or do i just order the 98-99 and leave a friction plate in the closet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
