Title: Wet Clutch Cover Covers from Slingshot

Anyone using these?  Comments?  I have a scratched up cover from the previous owner dropping the bike on a gravel drive and this looks like a sanitary way to hide it and add a touch of bling.

Looks rather like the Woodcraft cover....

I'd say Woodcraft has a more established reputation... but I could be wrong in thinking that Woodcraft makes any covers specifically for wet clutches.

Thanks kopfjager!

I'm leaning towards the natural finish one...hoping I can buy one from them that is un-anodized, then having the shop I use hard-ano (sort of a light pewter color) next time I have parts to send.

Did I read their site correctly in that they make a clutch cover for an S2R800?  I haven't stared too hard at my cover, but I wouldn't think what they were showing would work.  I have been wrong before, and hope to be wrong right now.

Yes, they make a wet clutch cover for your 800.

I thought the 800 clutch cover and side engine casing was one solid piece.  Do you have to cut anything?  I would walk outside and look at it myself, but I am at work, it is a pregnant dog of a walk to the parking lot, dark, cold, and raining.  Is summary, I am being a lazy puss.

I believe it is a small cover that bolts on over the stock clutch housing.

Ah, even better.  I would hate to add one more chance for a leak.  Thx for the info!

Yep - they just go over the stock cases, it doesn't replace them.  But the Woodcraft lick block you see sticking out is a separate, replaceable piece

Yes, I know that's a 696, but that's the only Monster they have photos of.

Per SSR: • Note: replacable aluminum slider (puck) - $20.00 each

I think it bolts on from the INSIDE.... maybe with countersunk bolts.

I have it in black and love the way it looks on my bike (and that it covers the minor scratches from a minor low-side last year). Been thinking of picking up the puck in red to make it "pop" a bit more
