Default Clutches.

What's the difference between doing a Carbon Fiber clutch and a kevlar clutch.

I was looking at doing one of these two clutch kits and i'm not sure what the difference is.

Carbon Fiber:

Kevlar:

Any help is appreciated.

the kevlar plates have higher heat resinstance with longer plate life but stay away from barnett clutches they are junk, stick with oem steels and fibers, or ebc or versah fibers, only thing i like about barnett is there springs, ebc makes some nice 1's im runnin a set in my bike now
