Clutch Bell Racing Stage6 R/T Wing Cooler Piaggio / Peugeot
Description
Wingcooler clutch bell Stage6 R/T
R/T version of the Stage6 WingCooler clutch bell for Piaggio / Peugeot / Honda / Kymco / Sym / GY6. This version is reinforced with an additional welded ring for extra stability and warp resistance.
Design Wing cooler clutch bell Stage6
The Stage6 WingCooler clutch bell features a reinforced shell and patented cooling concept. Air flows to the clutch shoes via side-mounted fan blades and enlarged holes. The result: longer clutch life and reduced clutch slip when hot. Lower bell temperatures mean less energy loss and more rear wheel power. Improved throttle response even on warm engines.
Additionally, the inner surface is sandblasted for better clutch shoe grip. With only 622 grams, it improves engine acceleration.
Note: WB-5495, WB-5476, WB-5427, WB-5499 and universal clutch holders fit without issue. WB-5426 does not fit.

The function of the clutch bell
Even though the clutch bells of scooters (centrifugal clutch) and clutch baskets of motorcycles (with multi-plate clutch) look different, their function is basically the same. What changes is the way they are actuated.
On a scooter or moped with a centrifugal clutch, when the engine revs up, the clutch shoes spread and engage the clutch bell and cause it to rotate. The bell then drives the transmission, which in turn turns the wheel.
On a motorcycle or motocross bike with a multi-plate oil bath clutch, the lined clutch plates engage the plain metal plates, which in turn drive the bell to rotate the transmission and wheel. When the clutch is actuated, the lined discs no longer engage the plain discs and rotation comes to a halt.
In short, the bell ensures that rotation is transferred from the engine to the gearbox and wheel.
Clutch bell: performance
With a tuning clutch bell, it is possible to improve performance or reliability.
Choosing materials like steel instead of aluminum provides greater durability. The heavier weight of steel also leads to higher inertia, which in turn can lead to higher torque. This is the case with the Hinson Momentum bell, for example.
A bell can also have cut-outs to improve cooling and thus prevent wear. Therefore, on scooters, you often find ventilated racing clutch bells. Also in motocross, some clutch bells have more cut-outs than others.
In summary, the weight and ventilation of a clutch bell affect the overall performance of the engine.
