'99350t Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 my banshee seems to slip the clutch (faintly) when you come into the powerband good and hard and i was just thinking about getting a lockout clutch, because from what i understand they work on centrifical force=applying more pressure to the plates at higher RPM's, i was wondering if its ok to run lockouts on dune/trail bikes?

sheerider1026 Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 thats debatable.. it makes a stock tranny harer to shift, but does eliminate clutch slippage.. your best bet is to go with a F.A.S.T clutch kit.. i here they hold high HP motors..

TeamRealtreeHD Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 I'd recommend a set of Heavy Duty Springs for your setup. And maybe the Fast Clutch if you got the money to do that as well. Get a EZ Pull lever and call it a day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'99350t Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 thanks guys, iam going to look into the FAST clutch, iam not overly worried about the lever pulling to hard, i dont even shift with the clutch alot as it is, plus i was thinking about grinding the shift star some if i felt i needed to get it to shift into gear easier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Centrifugal force" does not really exist. It is a false force in the sense that it does not act on the body in motion, it only acts on the source of centripetal force, and it is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the centripetal force. The weights are moving in a circular motion, and if one of the weights were instantaneously released from the arm, it would continue in a straight tangential line rather than go straight out along a radial line from the center point. I know, it is nothing really important, and it doesn't realy matter... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
