But then again, I dont see why soo many people have clutch problems. These clutches adjusted right & with the right clutch pads, should easily hold 7-8hp.
Very true, I have never had a clutch problem or slippage whatsoever on any of my bikes, but then again, I know how to adjust a clutch properly...lol...That's why I wrote that little "tutorial" on how to properly adjust a clutch...lol.
To date we have only had one real spring upgrade discussion where a person proposed an upgrade, and I offered some insight. There is a bit of fluff on the second page, but the very first post there is my first reaponse and a link to a possible upgrade option, and then on the third page halfway down is more Information/discussion on the topic.
This may be old news, but here is info for the HD Spring. BBR does sell one, however I'm uneasy about buying a spring that 1) Costs more 2) Costs more and has zero specs and 3) Being able to buy a spring, have the specs listed so if you need to buy elsewhere, you can. I'm wondering, does...
That's because it's made out of real tool steel, with real heat treating and tempering, quality control, and not made by 6 year olds making 1.50 an hour.

Should hold it, but we both know running a part like a clutch to it's limits tends to cause reliability issues and short service intervals due to fast wear rates.
Yeah i read that also. So I was wondering about stopping by Ace Hardware and finding these things like pins also. I know some people blaze heat pins and dip them in oil?This will be another intresting study to try:
A piece of drill bit would probably be too brittle? Maybe a piece of mill end might be the right combination between strong and brittle. Definitely room for experiment.
