You should always replace the pilot bearing when replacing a clutch.

what?! why?! tell u the truth i'm still considering whether or not i made the right decision going with a Stage 3. i'm kinda thinking its going to be way too hard to drive and too much for what i have. i'm thinking of trading for a Stage 2? what do u all think?

well, ive heard that stage 3 is still streetable. i have stage 2 and its basically the way i wished my stock clutch would perform for the beginning. stage 3 is definitely nice tho if your planning on putting some serious power down. make sure your left leg is adept at pushing

is it going to be, like, hard to drive slowly around a parking lot?

I used the original one....it had low miles and there was no resistance. They cost $25 at Honda.

Stage 3 is not hard on your legs. At least I cant notice it. I did my install this last weekend. Took me 2 days 'cause the axles didnt want to come out.

CM Stage 3 kicks ass!
