We replace the stock unit with a DP kit in my son-in-laws Z400 about a year ago and it performed well. He just replaced it with a Barnett clutch kit. I have only ridden it once but it had a good feel. Any of the major brands should be fine.

your stock clutch plates and fibers are always better than aftermarket. if your looking for clutch baskets thats a better upgrade hinson wiseco etc..... but use oem plates and fibers they will last longer .

His last clutch lasted 3 months, and he doesnt ride the clutch bad at all. I think this is his third time replacing his clutch on his 06 bike! Something is wrong with his bike.

theres something wrong either gearing or clutch instalation . sorry your answer cant be over the web you need to let somebody that is familiar with clutch installs to take a look at it.did you pre soak the fibers and plates before you installed them. there is alot of questions that need to be asked and answered.youdont have to ride the clutch to make it go bad . it could be out of adjusment that would wear it out faster.

I am not here to argue. i have installed clutches in just about every quad out there im just saying somthing is wrong you should get 2 years at least out of a clutch without looking at it is almost impossible to fix it for you.

i would take it somewhere. it would save $ in the long run if you have to get a new one every ride.

If your oil pump is locked up there would be more than your clutch not getting oil, the cam and head would be shot in a few minutes.
What type of oil do you use, motorcycle or automotive?? this could be a factor also. I have 2 400's that have been raced for 2 plus years and never had a clutch failure.. and as far as what plates, some people like stock but I have had good luck with the kevlar plates. KEN
