848 Slipper Clutch

The DBK Ducati 848 Slipper Clutch is a premium upgrade for performance and reliability, crafted from 7075 billet aluminum and anodized for strength and light weight. This 6-spring, wet clutch system replaces the traditional spider spring design with an advanced ramp-style mechanism featuring incorporated stainless steel balls. This design ensures smoother downshifts, reduces wear and tear on the drivetrain, and offers a more precise and less jerky engagement. Experience a lighter and smoother shifting experience that noticeably improves your Ducati's performance and handling. The ball-in-ramp technology allows for quick and smooth clutch release and re-engagement, minimizing jerking or hesitation during gear changes, which is particularly beneficial when accelerating out of corners or downshifting. The elimination of the spider spring significantly reduces the risk of failure, offering a more reliable and durable component. It is designed to fit OEM clutch plates, though new clutch plates are highly recommended for optimal performance, or original plates with less than 2000 miles. The number of springs used can be adjusted to tailor engine braking preference. Professional installation is recommended, and this component is best suited for race and aggressive street riding.
