What are your thoughts on having a slipper clutch in a bEC.... a good idea or not?
I have a Yamaha R1 with an option for a slipper unit.

I don't know that it is needed with a BEC. My car does not seem to drag the rear tires while going down through the gears under heavy braking. I have no idea as to whether they are more or less durable than a standard clutch. That is probably more important in a BEC.

Thanks... I think I'll stick to the stock clutch with barnett springs..

That is the same setup I am running and it has been great so far. Just be sure to run motorcycle specific oil, or you may have some clutch slippage under hard acceleration.
