SHOP CLUTCH BASKETS & CLUTCH HOUSINGS

Notched or worn clutch basket? We stock genuine OEM clutch baskets and clutch housings, including a complete clutch housing assembly for the Kawasaki KH400 / S3 Mach II 400. Genuine baskets are getting harder to find for classic two-strokes.

When you replace a basket, check the plates and springs too, and see our clutch assemblies for more parts. Fit a new gasket on the clutch cover when it goes back on.

FAQ – Clutch Baskets

What are the signs of a worn clutch basket?

A notchy or jerky clutch action, rattling at idle that goes away when you pull the clutch in, and grooves worn into the basket fingers are common signs.

Can a notched clutch basket be filed smooth?

Light notches can sometimes be dressed, but it removes material and only buys time. Deep grooves mean the basket should be replaced.

Should I replace the clutch plates at the same time?

If the plates are near their service limit, yes. Fitting worn plates in a new basket can quickly wear new notches.

Is the primary gear part of the clutch basket?

On many bikes, yes. The basket includes the primary driven gear and rubber dampers, so worn dampers can also mean replacing the basket.
