Spend a few extra bucks (5 to 10) and get the clutch from Jeff @ FAST. If you don't have an extreme mods, use 3 stock and 3 HD springs, alternate them. get an ez pull lever and perch. It will last you a LONG time. I'm on my 3rd season with mine, from a bolt on stocker in 05, a 4 mil cub on gas last year (95HP or so) to a 10 mil on alky with override and lockup this year (115 to 120HP or so)...this thing still keeps on ticking...

shanYE west Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 If it was me and my bike was rather stockish I'd save some coin and run the Tusk Kit from RMATV. I've ran them in my moded 250r and moded raptor with no problems at all. So I'll put a vote in for the 40.00 tusk kit. But the EBC kit should do the trick too.

luv2rideaz Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 i was thinking of posting a question, but this is basically my question also...slipping clutch. i have an '06, 19cc domes, +4 timing, t-5's,2into1 foam filter,stock carbs with tors removed,v-force 3, vitos superstock pistons, running 100LL av-gas with power plus, i do 3rd gear starts on drags, and get plenty of wheel spin and have bought a 15 tooth front to help but it feels that the clutch is not releasing very well, i run honda hp trans oil 85w. i am thinking i need to do the heavy springs in the clutch also. if i change half of them with heavy ones, how much will it change the "feel" of the lever? how hard are they to change? special tools?

locogato11283 Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 before you just go and slap a clutch in there, check your other clutch parts. its possible they are worn. what year is the motor. if they are worn and you put a new clutch in it, you will mask the problem for a while, but itll be back..

Most after market clutches are NOT offset on the steels, nor do the fibers use the rubber orings to dampen noise, either.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okbeast Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 I have heard some negative about the EBC, not sure what site it was on. I would just spend the $35 or w/e it is on the Tusk, that's what I run and have no problems, as well as others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bansheeman1121 Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Vote for ebc here, there tough and grab great, worth the price i put the springs in to and the pull aint bad at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbooker82 Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 I am running a Barnett Carbon Fiber clutch. I would have gottne the FAST clutch if I would have known about it before I got this one. I have been going on a couple of years with no problems. The Fast clutch uses fibers from a yamaha street bike.(i believe) Factory designed to hold power from 150 HP+ crotch rockets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grounded Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 I put an EBC in mine after my barnett went. It uses an extra plate, and has a stiffer feel. This will be my 3rd season on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
