    Slipper Clutch?

    Does the 2003 RSV1000 Mille come standard with a slipper clutch?
    Thanks

    I think it's quite a noticable upgrate...the pnuematic slipper does work, but it's a it's a bit wonkey...YRMV, but they are expensive. Practice blipping the throttle and put $1K into suspension, tires, track days...leathers...a couple of helmets...a vacation....

    Anyone know if you need the STM clutch push rod (the one pictured on the ebay listing and the instruction sheet) or do you use what is already in the engine.
    Asking before I pull it apart.
    Thanks
