Here's a burnt Pioneer clutch disk vs a barnett yxz disc. 4 fibers in the Pioneer vs 10+ in the yxz. A little deceiving though as the Talon/Pioneer uses oil pressure to engage the clutch just like an automatic trans in a car. 110-130 psi oil pressure from the dedicated pump puts out around 1,000 psi on the clutch pack.

Seems to be the most raw and possibly most fun. Surprised the shifting was loud and clunky (even when the dealer drove it). Honda Talon X- $19,800 OTD. Fit pretty good, seats are super comfy. More upright so I guess knees are more bent. Nice fit and finish, convenience of auto or paddle shifters.

They should make it about 4" wider. that would be the same width as the Talon. The Rmax does not have quiet the articulation that the Honda had and tends to roll from one side to the other. Next time I will disconnect the sway bar. The Rmax also hauls ass but I do thing the Talon would beat it in an all out drag race.
