This is an KTM O.E.M. slipper clutch that works on the RC390 (original equipment on the 390 Duke)
I bought all the necessary parts to convert a RC390 to a slipper clutch out of the Duke 390.
Very little use, (maybe,300 miles) So, it's like new and I guaranty its condition.
I paid $350 USD new...
Yes, the second picture is of the the spacer/adaptor that fits the left fork leg (as sitting on the bike) also known as "drivers-side" (joke)
And yes, stock size wheel spacers are also retained. Also, don't forget and this is very important,… this spacer/adaptor sits in the fork-leg and the...
