Looks like a Bucci with Ducati logo. It all depends on what you want to do with it. I know I push the Yoyodyne but the stuff just works. Decent price, US company, you can all them and talk to them, etc. As much as I love bikes I admit I simply hate to wrench, I would sooner go out and pound on it.

Tell us how awesome it is please... I hear they cost an insane amount of money but are well worth it. Nice little thing. Congrats!
Well, after a couple sessions on the track, I now understand why the factory uses that setup. The thing is flawless. I'm sure there are other units out there that are just as good, perhaps. From what I understand, the going rate for this clutch from Ducati is in the neighborhood of $4500
I have'nt pulled the hub apart yet, but for that price, the damned thing should be made of gold!
There's definitely some design differences; the spider spring being the most obvious. No part number etched into the pressure plate. Most likely a knock-off, but that's not to say it's junk. There was a guy in the U.S... out of Virginia,IIRC, that was selling a similar unit on eBay for a while. I don;t know how it measures up comparatively
I'm about to try the EVR on my new racebike (currrently running an STM EVO on my now retired racebike). There are supposedly several design advantages - no spider spring, plates don't slip against each other generating less heat and plate wear, no need to grease the balls/ramps because there are none. Clutch packs aren't any more expensive than yoyodyne, the clutch itself is actually cheaper and should wear longer.
I'll report back after my first test and tune day next week. I'll be happy not having to clean and great a ball bearing clutch before the race weekends although my STM worked flawlessly for 3 seasons.. On the street it would seem to be even more advantageous.
Thanks Ben,
But I don't understand Italian!!! Can you translate? Maybe you already have one and know about it.
US dollars? Shipping cost to US? Brand? You say they us the stock plates? Difference between 4 and 5 spring? Build quality? (if you know)
TIA

When I clicked on the Italian Ebay slipper listing, a Google tool bar appeared above the listing and stated the ad was in Italian and Google translation feature was active. There was a box off to the left that said TRANSLATE so I clicked on it and the listing was now in English. Pretty cool I might say.

4500 sounds a bit steep, I would have thought something in the 1500 US$ range. But then, you never know because itīs Corse.
Adige is what Max loves and run. Many teams run Adige. I would have purchase one but went with Yoyodyne just because I can pick up the phone and call someone.
