Anyone try an STM Dry Clutch Converstion?

I know the advantages (and disadvantages) to a dry clutch.  But I'm wondering if anyone has any feedback on these conversion kits? 

I'm curious to how my clutch feel would change on my M1200S. I assume the slipper action would be better than stock? 

Thanks!

I'm guessing the kit and some of the bikes are so recent that few if any have tried it yet. There have been threads here on wet clutch two valve Monsters being converted to dry clutch with other Ducati parts which appears quite involved. Good to see a complete kit available. Are there kits for the 796 and 1100 evo?
Forum sponsor Motowheels also stocks STM parts iirc.

Ya I figured it was a bit early to have feedback on this kit yet.

But it looks like they do sell one for the 1100 evo!

Thanks for the link. I reckon you just helped a bunch of guys who want to dry clutch their Evos.

I havent heard anything avail for small case motors.

I'd also be curious to know if anyone has experience with the different STM dry clutches.   Seems like the SBK Evo and Evo GP are the options for the conversion.  I understand that the GP version allows for a bump start where the SBK does not.  But what are the the differences other than that?  Is one better than another for a street application?
