#4Hey dude.
I've got my Oberon clutch sitting here on a shelf waiting for me to fit it.
Got my Magura Royal Blood sitting here too. (The most recommended mineral oil for the set up)
I will photo and document the change from OE to Oberon and post it up. maybe tomorrow if I'm lucky - got to get it fitted in between looking after kids, lovely partner who's pregnant , and selling my car. All on the same day.
But I don't expect any real problems. I think it will be straightforward change over and bleed.
I'll keep posting.

#10Davey,
If your clutch is working fine, then in my experience it is not an upgrade. If your clutch slave is getting tired, then most feel this is a better route than the standard KTM slave. As for the base plate, heat is the enemy of the plastic base plate, the off road guys tend to suffer from base plate distortion and the Oberon aluminium base plate solves the heat distortion issue.
Having said that, if you can afford the plate as well as the slave it may be an idea to replace both at the same time. The hole in the middle of my original base plate had become distorted. A quick bit of minimal filing sorted this, until the Oberon base plate arrived.

#13Is it the same feeling with the oberon slave as with the original one? or does the clutch become easier to pull?

#18Guys could you just inform me if the Ktm clutch cylinder start not to work properly how long will take me after?I mean how many km i am able to do after understanding that something bad happened in my cylinder?I am thinking to have an oberon clutch under the seat and in the event that starts not to work properly to change it straight forward in the middle of the road...
