Thanks for taking the time to test both types. I really wish i’d had the info before buying. I thought i was doing the right thing buying sintered and it would be a harder wearing setup. Never even gave it a second thought that different metals could have been used. So i’ve actually ended up with steel plates on an ally basket. I would have definately gone with organic plates, so that it’s ally plates on an ally basket. Ffs!
Did you notice rough engagement with your sintered clutch plates? Stock basket? I chose organic plates and a slipper clutch because my monsters shifting, clutch engagement have never smoothed out. I also bought Oberon slaves for both bikes to try to tame the beasts a bit!
My 1198 has a smoother transmission and clutch engagement so I was mostly wanting more durability, so I opted for the sintered plates and basket. At my last track day I pushed the bike hard, I smelt clutch plates and brakes at the end of the day..
