- September 19, 2012, 12:16:50 PMThe link I provided goes to the accessories area. Within that area is BARNETT Performance. That link goes to their website... steel plates are listed there from my reading.
Friction Plates (Qty.): ()Steel Plates (Qty.): 401-45-063014(AR) 401-45-078014(AR) 401-45-089014 (AR)
Spring Kits: 502-00-01025 (H.D.)
Clutch Kits: *302-45-20018
They are also active Kawasaki parts so you can get them from any dealer, or from a discount MC parts place like Ronayers.com. They are about $8 each online.
You need to measure the clutch pack before you spend a bunch on steel plates. These plates come in 3 sizes which have to be placed as required to ensure the pack meets the operating spec.
1308913089-1075 - PLATE-CLUTCH,T=2.0 AR
13089A13089-1080 PLATE-CLUTCH,T=1.6 AR
13089B13089-1081 PLATE-CLUTCH,T=2.3 AR
Usually, you don't need them. I replaced the friction plates, upgraded to two holders and replaced the spring plate with the one currently used on all 1500/1600's. I didn't need to replace the steel plates.

- September 18, 2012, 23:01:43 PMI've got a 99 1500 and the clutch was slipping bad I replaced the fibers..springs and the two spacer washers also the case gasket it was an easy fix easier than I thought and it runs great not a bit of clutch slip..the steels were fine I just scuffed them up with some sandpaper to take the glaze off and that was it.

- September 18, 2012, 18:53:33 PMso I am gearing up to put a clutch in the bike..has 54k miles on it. so I found the links to the clutch part number and what not.. so I am doing a Google search for a clutch kit.. all you will find is the friction plates. SO my question does no one sell a complete kit together?? friction plate,steel plate,spring and gaskets?? seems like a pain in the ass to order from here and there and then the shipping will kill you.. the only place I found was sherms gorilla clutch, I sent them an email to see about the gasket and have gotten no reply? and from what I am seeing all the clutch's are the same in the vulcan1500 and 1600.. and also from what I get out of this you don't replace the steel friction plates unless they are worn. next to the part numbers it has Ar= as required and since they don't come with the kit anywhere on the planet that's how it comes across
