    Default How long does the F3's clutch last?

    Hello everyone!
    Reading the forum, I saw reports from people that their spyder drove 100,000 miles. I would like to know how long the clutch lasts? I have a 2015 f3-s sm6 and have 50,000 km (31,000 miles) already running the clutch, but maybe I should look for and order a new clutch?
    I don't have a can-am dealer and finding such parts can be tricky.
    Is it enough to simply change the clutches and plates, or do you need some other springs?

    Unless you are having some slippage I would not worry about it at all!!! As far as what you will really need, until you get it out on the bench you will not have the full story, of what you need

    Using a motor oil with a JASO MA2 rating will help with the life of the clutch.

    I think cheapcycleparts.com ships internationally. They will also have an exploded diagram so you can see what it looks like.

    Unfortunately, they only have US shipping. On my suzuki m109r, I had to replace the clutch for 20k miles. So I thought it was time to order the Spyder as well. It is cold here in winter and it is impossible to ride a bike.

    The Spyder clutch will last the life of the machine, if you treat it right. If not, it may not last very long at all.

    I have a 2015 F3 SM6 with 57K miles on it, almost all of those miles are 2 up. Clutch still feels as solid as when new. As Ron stated, you should be good for a long while "if you treat it right".
