The 4-puck sintered disc works right enough, but it'd be better suited to a race car than one driven daily, especially in town. It gets a bit bitey when hot.
A bit bitey!?! It likes to spin the back wheel a bit on gravel at idle when the clutch engages. Something to go with the large heavy flywheel and a hot clutch with no give. It does hold a stupid amount of torque/power though which was the purposed it was fitted with.

I am planning to pull it out this winter when I swap in another m90 so we'll see what state it is in and how the standard flywheel is coping.
