Part number FKT-S080 delivers smoother, more predictable clutch engagement all day long — whether you are lapping a circuit or pushing hard on a mountain road — so fatigue stays low and your focus stays on the next apex.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrevents engine over-rev on down-shifts, keeping the rear wheel planted and the chassis composed through corner entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimises rear wheel hop under engine braking, adding measurable stability and traction when it matters most\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces the trigger impulse of a highside, significantly lowering risk at high speeds and lean angles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnables controlled rear wheel slide for improved handling balance and more intuitive cornering feel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBetter management of clutch closing phase in bends prevents the front end from tucking under deceleration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiaphragm spring design eliminates pressure plate wobble, giving the lever a smoother, more consistent release feel that reduces hand fatigue over a long session\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatented ball-ramp mechanism governs the anti-hopping function with precision and repeatability at high rpm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight saving of approximately 0.7-0.8 kg through a reduction in rotating mass, sharpening throttle response and overall performance of the RC8 1190\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBuild Quality and Technology\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSTM's slipper clutch technology is trusted at the highest levels of circuit racing, and the FKT-S080 brings that same engineering rigour to the KTM RC8 1190. The patented ball-ramp system is the heart of the design: under normal acceleration the ramps lock the clutch basket solidly for full power transmission, but the moment the drivetrain reverses under aggressive down-shifts, the ramps progressively unload clutch pressure, allowing a controlled slip that absorbs the shock before it reaches the tyre. The diaphragm spring replaces the conventional coil-spring stack, removing pressure plate flutter and delivering a lever pull that feels linear and effortless — a genuine comfort advantage on long track days or spirited road rides where repeated down-shifts accumulate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePerformance on Track and Road\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn track, the reduction in rotating mass translates directly into faster response from both engine and chassis — the RC8 1190 feels lighter on its feet and changes direction more willingly. On the road, the anti-hopping function removes the anxiety of a sudden rear wheel skip mid-corner, letting you focus on smooth, committed riding rather than managing unwanted drama from the drivetrain. The result is a clutch that actively makes you a more confident, more consistent rider every time you go out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis STM slipper clutch is a direct-fit replacement engineered specifically for the following motorcycle:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eKTM RC8 1190 — model years 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: STM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: FKT-S080\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Slipper clutch (anti-hopping clutch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFitment: KTM RC8 1190 (2008-2011)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnti-hopping mechanism: Patented ball-ramp system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpring type: Diaphragm spring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight saving: approximately 0.7-0.8 kg reduction in rotating mass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53168706060554,"sku":"FKT-S080","price":1028.05,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/FDU-S050_79d9d8dd-6b53-45a8-b3d9-4ccffa175c59.png?v=1780811737","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/ar\/products\/stm-fkt-s080","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
