After market clutch baskets

I was in need of a new clutch basket because mine was severly notched. I decided to order the wiseco basket because it had the best warranty and was cheaper than new OEM and hinson.

Is there a noticeable preformance gain in a after market basket? Does your bike actually get more acceleration???

Back in the 70's i knew guys that bought brass plates to gain some flywheel affect. At best you end up reducing your weight gain or savings by whatever your primary ratio is. I dont think I ever change baskets and got ANY kind of performance gain over any other good working clutch.

if i was to choose an aftermarket basket, would definitly go with hinson, but a wiseco will do just as good i would assume

I've used the Hinson. Not impressed for $140 more than the oem basket. Notched just as bad and relatively quick.
I want to say my oem basket was $65 shipped for free.

Theres a couple other factors in clutch life, rider ability, aggression, type of terrain, oil used, etc. etc.

Can't say I've ever worn a basket out so bad I had to replace it, I just put a clutch in the WR, filed the basket down and away we went and that ones 13 years old.

13 years old... I might want to think about a new bike....
