Hinson Clutch Components for Motorcycles

Hinson Clutch Components is known industry-wide for championship-winning aftermarket clutches for sport bikes and off-road motorcycles. The company was established in 1992 but to tell the truth, their story began in 1989 when Wayne Hinson, the founder, helped Gary Denton in winning the seventh Grand National Championship. It was then when the first performance clutch basket was engineered. Wayne used more durable aluminum and hard-coated the basket, which resulted in equal or lighter design compared to die-cast factory baskets. Nowadays, in addition to clutches, Hinson Clutch Components also provides pressure plates, inner hubs, slipper clutches, clutch spring kits, clutch covers, and steel, fiber, and akadized plates, as well as accessories like oil filler caps, backing plate kits, clutch holder tools, and brackets.

During the company’s history, they have collaborated with the top teams and best bikers in the racing world. Actually, all ready-made Hinson Clutch Components products offered these days are the result of numerous researches, development activities, and close cooperation with the best racers across the globe. With these parts the company has won 267 National and World Championships and is very proud of these achievements. Many professional racers choose their products. For instance, in 1996, the American Honda Factory SX/MX team opted for the Hinson clutch baskets and eleven years later the company’s slipper clutches became a choice of the American Honda’s Factory Superbike team.
