POORBOY350 Posted March 8, 2009 Report Posted March 8, 2009 what do yal think is would be a good setup for me with a 4mm cub, 35mm carbs, cpi inframes, lockout clutch, ect. ect... my prob is when racing the clutch is so hard to pull it is slowing me down from having to pull the thing so hard. i get on one that doesnt have the lockout with good hp, has a gigster 1000 clutch i think in it not sure but his cluthc is like butter just slapping the gears down the track. i just want a smooth easy clutch and im just wondering how some of yal think i should do that. thanks. my bike isnt setup for much dragging now but im about to put a stretched swinger on it if i can get this clutch right.

What i think you need is a duneable override tranny. You got a cub and a lockout all you're missing is the override. Quote
RadarRacing Posted March 8, 2009 Report Posted March 8, 2009 I'd uses and 3 normal clutch springs and 3 stiller ones with a Gigot slingshot lockup to hold in the higher gears and I think it'll hold up for quite a while for ya. With the fzr 1000 plates you'd have a tough clutch. Make sure you get an easy pull lever if you dont have one too. Quote

fastbanshee8 Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Check the Fast site, for the E-Z pull lever. I got one several years ago, and my clutch pull is easier than stock, with one of the Fast clutches. :thumbsup: Quote

sheerider1026 Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 i would suggest a dunable overide.. thats what i did with my cub.. the lockout holds the clutch plates together very tight at high rpm's.. either sell the lockout and get a good F.A.S.T clutch. or get a dunable overide.. if you decide to sell the lockout let me know.. i also have a polished stock clutch cover if you need one.(it looks like chrome) Quote

sheefreak Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Keep the lockup and run all stock springs. You don't need HD springs w/the lockup especially if you are only running a +6 swinger w/a cub motor. If anything you want that initial slip. The lockout is not what is causing the clutch to pull hard. The easy lever will always help. I can guarentee you if you get rid of that lockup, you will be kicking yourself in the rear later. Another thing to check is your cluctch cable itself. W/moisture comes corrosion and they begin to pull very hard. But don't sell the lockup. Quote

But don't sell the lockup. thanks alot man. i will do that just put all stock springs. and check how much them levers are. and i thought about the cable itself if it is corroded making it hang up or just be jammed up could cause it to be more difficult thats the answer i was looking for hope it works man.

POORBOY350 Posted March 9, 2009 Author Report Posted March 9, 2009 i dont see whats so easy abou the easy pulll lever??? :shrug: mines not stock what makes this one pull easier? Quote
sheefreak Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 I believe it is just longer....More leverage. I think you will be pleased w/the pull of stock springs and a good cable.... Quote

POORBOY350 Posted March 10, 2009 Author Report Posted March 10, 2009 hell ya man i've got a new cable and stock springs coming! Quote
POORBOY350 Posted March 23, 2009 Author Report Posted March 23, 2009 put a new, motion pro terminator cable on and it made a HUGE diff. put 6 stock springs in it, now it is like butter. its so smooth and effortless a big improvement since before. i never knew a cable could make that big a difference. . . so now im runnin lockout w/ stock springs. 110% better than before. the springs helped a lil but the problem was mostly the cable. . .
