Im going to be removing my OEM 1299 clutch basket and wanted to know what would be the best tool to help remove it? Ive been looking online and have seen some handheld tools but would like to get a quality one that wont break. Can anyone recommend a company? Ive also seen this one HDesa where the tool mounts to where your clutch cover normally mounts to. Anyone ever use this or heard of this company? The tool seems kind of pricey. But sometimes you get what you pay for. Unless someone has another company I can use. Ducati Panigale 899 859 1199 1299 Clutch Holding Tool
 
Yeah the HDesa one works great I have one definitely can't go wrong. I have most of the other tools he makes as well they are all worth getting.
 
I believe that the manufacturer's tool costs less than the one offered by HDesa. Alternatively, and even less expensive, make a template and fabricate the tool from a piece of 1/4" thick steel plate stock.
 
Just buy the HDesa it’s 129.00 and your done. Unless you’re earning minimum wage, or have a machine shop you will loose money making a tool.

I wound up buying the HDesa tool back in February and installed the EVR CTS wet clutch. I was glad I bought it. Although the lower thread on the left side where the tool bolts into got stripped in the case itself. I tried the locktite thread repair kit. But that didnt work. So I used a helicoil to fix the issue. It was my first time using a helicoil
