diference is the D and Z

[tbirdhd]

ok what is the difference in the D and Z clutch plates and spring , besides .35 cent

[Steve]

The Z is for the '82 bikes, the D is for the '83 bikes.

Exactly what the difference is between the two, I will have to defer to someone else.

sorry , 82/83 1100 E/G z ans d same #s for all bike , and the 84-86 1150e , are the D plates and spring better or just more $$$$

[blowerbike]

if you speak of 83 E/ES those are a steel backed extra plate set of fibers that destroy your backet.
one year only and suzuki went back to the 80-82 fibers for the 1150's.
the big shaft bikes have the same fibers as the 80-82 1100E's and 84-86 1150's.
all the fibers are now superseded so all you can get from a dealer (OEM) is the separate fiber blocks glued to the aluminum backing plates.
still good stuff..have ran in the 7's with the new style fibers they offer...just a little pricey.

That was probably a different length to compensate for the extra plate.

Now that the extra plate is not offered, only one spring is necessary.
