Thumbs down McLeod Dual Performance Clutch

Disappointed. After about 30,000 miles and 1 1/2 years, the clutch disc was almost worn out, the pressure plate was warped, and the springs on the clutch disc were broken. My clutch chattered like hell, especially after I put the poly trans mount in, but I'm really disappointed on how quickly the clutch fell apart.

Was this a street twin or a single disc setup?? My single disc survived 25000 miles and tons of dragstrip and street abuse. Haven't done too much to the street twin yet though.

The mcleod street twin doesnt have springs on the clutch, so if you broke them i would be pretty impressed!

The single disc. The dual performance one is the single disc, the street twin is the street twin...

No clue on how i broke the springs. But aside from that, the clutch was almost worn down to the metal, and I don't feather the clutch at all. Just regular use and abuse and at the most, 10 strip runs.
