STM enters the Ducati accessory market
Clutch slave cylinder
Quick release tank cap
Internationally respected Italian Slipper Clutch and clutch component specialist STM Trading used EICMA in November 2021 as the platform from which to launch a diversification of the product range that its dealers have access to . The company is leveraging its design experience and precision-machining expertise to go into the highly competitive , high-performance sports bike accessory segment . Initially for the Ducati 937 - STM is a Ducati Corse Technical Partner and offers clutches for most Ducati
Clutch master plate models , including the Monster - the 2022 973 cc Monster and Monster Plus are lightweight , at 166 kg dry , agile and sleek - " representing all the essence of Ducati in the lightest , most compact and essential form possible ". Described as the " sport naked par excellence ", STM has designed an initial selection of lightweight , durable , high-strength accessories that include a quick release tank cap , a choice of clutch master plates , risers , water pump casing , sprocket cover , clutch slave cylinder , dashboard cover , licence plate holder and more . Founded in the late 1970s , and these days led by Valerio Gaffuri as CEO , STM has seen major manufacturing investments recently , and is forever closely linked with the Slipper Clutch ( aka ' Back Torque Limiter ') technology that first saw the light on Honda ' s ill-fated four-cylinder NR500 . STM didn ' t enter the motorcycle industry until the mid-1990s , with Ducati scoring two world titles with STM ' s anti-slip clutch design . Its motorcycle business really took off in 2003 when STM took the critical step of applying its anti-skid technology to oilimmersed clutches for the first time .
Water pump casing
Since then , the business footprint and precisionmanufacturing reputation it has developed has made it ' brand ' ripe for further development - these accessories being among the first such diversifications to come to market .
