I was looking at these clutch plates on ebay.  They come from MC Motoparts based out of Hong Kong.  I'm just curious if anyone has any experience with these.  At more than half the price of a speedymoto piece, I'm somewhat interested.........

Not sure if this is the same seller, but there was some discussion a bit ago about pressure plates exactly like these. I don't think we reached an real conclusions though. On one hand I'm all for a deal... but seeing a blatant knock off like that chaps me a bit.

But it should be noted, that they are not exactly the same as speedy moto. Some of the cost savings you see is that the HK onces use less material, because the plate isn't as tall as the SpeedyMoto version. So it doesn't offer the same degree of protection to the clutch hub posts, if you do go down on that side. So less raw materials and less mill time will make for a less costly products
