Difference between EBC CK 3335 and CK3345 clutch

[garyS-NJ]

I need a clutch for my '79 gs1000. Some old school jap bike guys told me buy oem else cork from ebc or vesrah. Last night in a tear i picked the ebc ck3335 but saw the ck3345 which should also fit. What is the difference between these clutches ?

The EBC clutches cost a little more then vesrah so I figured it better.. but EBC also makes a Kevlar clutch (as do others like barnett) and an aramid paper clutch. Wondering if my old school advice was behind the times.. What do most street riders put on their gs1000? This must be a common question

thanks Agemax! I returned the CK3335 and bought the CK3345. On inspection of the CK3345 I saw some large variations in the plate gaps and posted a new post as well as calling EBC

Yep, lots of vendors don't properly distinguish the 8V and 16V versions of the GS750, GS1000, and GS1100. It's aggravating as hell.

Caveat emptor.
