    it is but I would not recommend it, I have a zx 10 and you cant pull the lever in till your at 3 or 4 mph or less, so stopping can be an issue at times, I wouldnt recommend it myself
    Just a couple slow zx 10s.

    If you have the clutch setup for dragracing, and are taking advantage of the engine driven aspect, you will not be able to ride it on the street with the same setup. The clutch will slip in higher gears at low engine speeds. If you set it up to not slip in the higher gears at low speeds (as in the case of the clutch mentioned by DENN911), you might as well save the money and just put heavy springs in a standard clutch or get a conventional snowflake lockup as the engine driven aspect is not in play.

    It is not particularily difficult to change the clutch to make it work on the street, provided you have a quick access cover, but there is no silver bullet that will really allow taking advantage of the clutch and drive it on the street in a "factory clutch" manner without some small changes.

    You really are running enough static to cruise at low speeds without clutch slip?
