Clutch springs
While waiting for my frame from the powder coaters I have been checking a few things I checked my clutch plates and they are almost new, but when I was out on my bike in the summer when it hit the mad power band the clutch jumped a bit so I would like to beef the springs up a bit, the ones I have seem to be OK the clutch lever was quite light so could someone recommend springs with a wee bit more beef without making the clutch lever too heavy. Thanks in advance

Re: Clutch springs
Did it jump or slip?
A sudden jump and then drive again is more likely the gears..

Re: Clutch springs
Its not jumping it's just the slight slip when the power comes in all I need is slightly heavier springs.

Re: Clutch springs
Be careful with heavier springs they sometimes make the clutch lever very stiff to pull in, (no fun when riding in town )you may just need a fresh set, as Pete says Ebc springs.Ogri211 wrote:Its not jumping it's just the slight slip when the power comes in all I need is slightly heavier springs.

Re: Clutch springs
Hi thanks for that I got a set of EBC 10% heavier springs and fitted them my plates are almost new I will make sure the adjustment is correct and I'm sure it will work fine.
