Does anyone know how the clutch space piston size of our VFRs (and other Hondas) changes over the years?
I know a few numbers:
- 5th gen clutch slave is 35.6mm
- VTR1000 clutch slave is 35.6mm (I’m assuming as same part number)
- 6th gen clutch slave is 33.5mm
- Oberon clutch slave is 38mm
Not sure if all 6th gens are same across the years? What about 8th gen? What about other Hondas with the same type of slave? CBRs, Blackbirds, Pan Europeans etc?
I’d like to fit a bigger piston slave on my 5th gen but don’t know which one (other than Oberon).
As as an aside, if you’d like a softer clutch on your 6th gen you may want to try a 5th gen slave. You’ll get longer lever travel and more modulation.
