    Hello everyone

    I'm riding a 2011 speed triple.

    Did any of you felt the need for a slipper clutch for fast countryside road riding?

    In my previous bike I had one n you never had to worry about smacking it down for corner entries.

    I just bought my triple a week ago and I have a lot to learn about her. I just don't want to find things the hard way.

    Thank you all

    Had no issue with wheel lock what so ever. Mines a 2011 and i'm on mine having came from a fireblade so it gets ridden fairly aggressively at times without issue.

    It's now standard on the new bikes and i would say if you like arriving fast and smashing it down 2 or more gears at a time then fit one as it all helps in riding smoother.

    I am kinda hoping I shouldn't have to get one for road riding. I am just trying to get an idea from others about their experiences. If I am to get one then I guess sigma would be good.

    Oh Darkman. .I ordered the r&g engine case sliders for both sides :) thanks for the idea
