yeah I have spun about 10 of them now....
the marginal spec of the oem bearing with the sideload caused by the
tight clearance of the gohbee black 85t mainngear can cause short life...
1 good wet/flooded start will do it..
FYI,the clutch one-way bearing is the same size as a Trex 450 autorotation bearing
a $6 rex bearing is alot cheaper fix than buying a $16 raptor clutch...
the rex auto bearing is about equal in quality to the oem stinger oneway..
HOWEVER.....Align just released a new German made oneway for the 450se that may be answer...

I've had three, None work worth crap. One tore itself up like yours and the others all slip. I have never had a problem with a thunder tiger one after using countless. The actual clutch material on the Gohbee unit is better and lasts much longer than the thunder tiger piece though. It is much more resistant to "springing" and breakage. What I usually do is press a thunder tiger bearing into a Gohbee clutch.

If you can't learn to do it well, learn to enjoy doing it badly.

My oneway bearing on my clutch was pressed in on an angle. It made an awful sound. I replaced the cluctch with a TT one, all is good now.
