Default clutch

Is anyone else going through clutches every 2 or 3 races? I'm tired of replacing them.

Had mine since new in late 07. Never replaced my stock clutch plates and racing w/a Rekluse all last season the stock fibers still had almost full life on them. Sounds like you're not doing something right. Are you pre-soaking the fibers? Proper freeplay? I've never heard of trashing a clutch that fast on any quad! Is your basket in good shape?
