DP Brakes Clutch Kit for Suzuki RM250 (DPK198)

The DP Brakes DPK198 Clutch Kit is engineered to outperform OEM and aftermarket clutch systems on Suzuki RM250 motorcycles. Designed for off-road and dual-sport performance, this complete kit includes friction plates, steel drive plates, and clutch springs, except where the original equipment clutch uses a reusable diaphragm spring. The kit arrives ready to race, so the friction plates do not require presoaking in oil before installation. All components are supplied in a foam-lined hard plastic case that protects them during storage and transport, and the case can be reused for tools, parts, or other equipment after installation.
The DPK198 uses exclusive high-heat friction materials developed for ultrasmooth power delivery and fade-free performance under demanding riding conditions. The friction compounds are selected specifically for off-road and dual-sport motorcycles and are designed to provide greater durability than standard OEM plates. This helps maintain consistent clutch engagement and dependable performance through extended use, aggressive riding, and repeated heat cycles.
The included steel drive plates offer important advantages over stock aluminum plates. They resist expansion, reduce clutch fade, and help prevent clutch swell that can affect engagement consistency. Their increased weight adds flywheel effect, helping improve starting and traction, while the steel construction is designed not to muddy or contaminate engine oil. Depending on riding conditions, the plates can deliver up to three times the service life of stock components.
Precision-wound clutch springs complete the DP Brakes DPK198 kit. Made from premium chrome silicone wire, the springs are heat-treated and shot-peened for extended service life. Each spring is individually designed with strong spring rates to help prevent clutch slippage while improving clutch feel and ease of operation. For riders seeking reliable engagement, smooth control, and durable performance, this DP Brakes clutch kit provides a complete upgrade solution for the Suzuki RM250.
