Hydraulic actuation has nothing to do with the torque capacity of the clutch, the same clutch would have the same torque capacity whether you used a cable to operate it or a hydraulic system.

Some of the tuners on the site can probably give you some real world information on how much torque the stock clutch can handle before it needs to be upgraded.

I have a Rivera clutch with a 131 and it was slipping while being tuned,changed to gold diaphram spring no more slip but the clutch lever is a tad stiffer. I didn't notice before while riding.
