Description
The EBC Brakes CKF kit is a tough carbon fibre impregnated moto-x/ATV clutch which is longer lasting and grippier than standard cork based units (friction plates only).
Carbon fibre clutch plates are designed to handle the higher temperatures encountered in racing while being gentle enough for every day riding. Each kit is measured to the perfect stack height and should only be fitted as a whole kit. Soak clutch plates in the correct quantity of manufacturer's recommended drive case oil before installation.
Never use automatic transmission fluid. We strongly recommend that this clutch is fitted by a professionally trained mechanic. It is best to fit new clutch springs at the time of changing clutch plates due to heat fatigue of old springs. We sell a range of clutch spring sets. Before riding your motorcycle please ensure you are comfortable with the new lever force and can easily disengage the clutch with minimal hand pressure. Have an experienced rider test the machine.
FEATURES
- Include carbon fiber impregnated friction plates
- Tough clutch plates extend engine life
- Improve drive
- Increase the heat threshold of the clutch
- Improve rider feel

Vehicle Information
Yamaha Virago 750 Motorcycle - Street (1981-1997)
The Yamaha Virago 750, produced from 1981 to 1997, was a pioneering V-twin cruiser. Known for its air-cooled V-twin engine, shaft drive, and distinctive cruiser styling, it underwent several refinements during its production run. Its 748cc (75-degree, SOHC, two-valve per cylinder) V-twin engine remained the core of the motorcycle. The Virago 750 saw notable evolutions. In 1984, a major redesign replaced the mono-shock rear suspension with a dual-shock setup, restyled the bike with a more pronounced chopper look, and upgraded the front braking to dual discs. An engine update in 1986 introduced a new generation engine, reducing horsepower from 60 to 55, but addressing a persistent starter problem. For the US market from 1984 to 1987, a 699cc XV700 version was offered to circumvent a tariff, before the XV750 returned in 1988. Aesthetic variations like the 1983 "Midnight Version" and different wheel options (cast or spoked) were also available. Q: How can I ensure parts fit my Yamaha Virago 750?
