Why have a 4 or 6 puck clutch?

Post by PeteK »

I'm just about to order a new clutch to go with my track motor. Does anyone know why a 4 or 6 puck clutch is better than a normal (disc?) type clutch?

I assume they can handle higher loads, but why or how? Especially as there seems to be less area.

Thanks
