I was wondering if someone might be able to post some pictures of the 1199 slipper clutch? I was wondering how Ducati has designed the slipper function, is it like the R6's with a ramp or like the Yoyodyne / STM with ball bearings on ramps? Also, is it tunable? I'm aware that the Ducati EBC, (engine brake control) is something completely different and adjusts the throttle opening only.
Ducati also claims to have an increased force on the clutch in the forward direction due to centrifugal force which is why they can get away with only 3 springs, just wondering how that is accomplished as well.
I have looked at the parts diagram from Ducati Omaha:
Ducati Omaha - Ducati OEM Parts Ordering System - Parts Fiche
and there appears to be a lot of detail missing, page 18.
I also looked at the engine teardown pics:
Ducati Indianapolis Panigale Engine Teardown - cadre-club's Photos
and it appears that they are using some kind of ramp style but can't tell for sure, pic #16
