Papalala Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 So the other day I bought the driveline heavy duty kit, and after installing the new springs I realized they made the clutch much harder to pull no matter how I adjust the pancake bearing. I ended up putting stock springs with the driveline friction plates and steel plates. Would it in any way hurt more than help? I know the driveline springs are probably better, but I cant stand a stiff clutch. Also if I install the driveline springs would they become leaner with time? I mean are they hard to pull just because they are brand new? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gusto Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 Some guys run 3 HD springs and 3 stock springs. You can try that. i would look hard at a hydraulic lever like Magura. Chinese are making dirt cheap copies of them on eBay. or buy a better clutch lever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZillaFreak Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 Springs should not lose their stiffness aka spring rate. The heavy duty spring means more pressure on the fibers meaning more grip meaning it can hold more power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papalala Posted January 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 Do you guys advise me to put back the heavy duty springs or keep the stock ones? For now my bikes only pipes and filter, I replaced my clutch because I will be installing a new ported engine soon. I assume I will have to put the heavy duty springs back when I do so. But for the hydraulic lever, how good are the chinese copies of them and can u link me one? Also would it be easy to pull with a hydraulic lever and heavy duty springs?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedder Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 Stock springs will hold a surprising amount of power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKEETER Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 Jmo, I'd call and talk to bill (bansheehp) on here, and ask his recommendation on springs, beings hes the 1 building these kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
97Screamer Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 I have a hydraulic clutch and HD Driveline springs and its easier to pull than my stock springs and ez-pull lever. On a ported stock cylinder you should be fine with stock springs. At the very most do every other HD spring as Gusto said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
