FAT CAT slipper clutches for BMW Motorcycles
Kenma Australia Pty Ltd would like to introduce the “FAT CAT” Anti hopping clutch system for
BMW 4 valve boxer “R”, Transverse 1200 and 1300cc "K" bikes, F800 and G series.
FAT CAT Performance Parts in conjunction with Suter have come up with an anti hopping slipper clutch solution for BMW'S single plate dry clutch system used in all 4V R series.
Developed primarily for the HP2 Sport, using vastly superior sintered friction material Fat Cat now produce a replacement clutch plate “The CAT Clutch” for all 4 valve Boxers that will outlast and outperform the original clutch plate in any conditions, in addition to this they have also managed to fit an anti-hopping, back torque limiting
mechanism that brings all the benefits that slipper clutches are renowned for in a racing environment, to the BMW boxer owner.
HP2 Sport owners take note during testing at the famous Monza race track, the Cat clutch fitted HP2 Sport was 12 seconds a lap faster and proved much easier to ride than a stock HP2 sport ridden by the same rider on the same
day.

Not racing? The CAT anti-hopping clutch provides additional safety and real world benefits to all BMW owners.
1.0 Fat Cat allows the rear ABS system to work correctly in a panic brake situation as the engine can not “stall” or
compression lock the rear wheel. This means the bike is much more stable and will pull up straighter and with
considerably less “sphincter pucker”
2.0 Fat Cat reduces stresses on the sometimes frustrating BMW gearbox and final drive, giving longer life and
smoother gear changing.
3.0 The plate floats on its own spline, reducing load and wear on the stock input shaft.
4.0 You can effectively change down as many gears as required before a corner, let the clutch out and the CAT
clutch will do the rest. You will be in the correct gear to exit the corner before you enter it.
5.0 Off road and Adventure riders will realise all these benefits are only enhanced when you veer off the black top.
The long life and increased ridability are just the start, pulling up a fully loaded GSA with the rear wheel locked;
heading into a down hill off camber hairpin on a fire trail is a thing of the past.
Also available from a FAT CAT dealer are SUTER slipper clutches for K1200, K1300, F800, and G450 series.
