Default Need help with clutch questions.

In a previous post I made I said I need to get new clutch plates and I will be getting new stock metal and fiber plates.

Now I am not going to be putting a new clutch in this thing once a year, so for the questions:
I want to know what are the BEST (stiffest) clutch springs are and how much do they cost?

I have heard of people buying 1 extra METAL plate and put two of them on first. I have heard it helps for clutch slippage problems. I want to know if this is true and does it work??? Please help because I am sick of this clutch BULL$hit. And yes I put it together right and I am now running Valvoline motorcycle oil.

Oh, I forgot to add that I have barnett clutch springs and I was wondering if they are good enough. I dont ride in the sand but I am not going to settle for half a$$ed products that might be just ok either. thanks

I think a lot of people don't have clutch problems, especially after they get stiffer springs. I know my clutch was always fine, and when I did a few mods I went ahead and spent the $25 to get the RWR 60% springs to make sure I don't have problems in the future.

I don't know enough about the Barnett clutches and springs to have an opinion about them.

I went with the RWR springs also. I had the barnetts anf the barnett clutch. I wasn't happy with the results of the clutch. It went out in 3 rides[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img] My son helped maked that a short lived clutch. So I am sure had it been properly used it would have lasted longer. Maybe.....??
Any way. I went back to the OEM clutch and have had no probs. And my son still hasn't fried this one. Sooo. Barnett????? No thanks. The spings might be OK. But they are cheap. And RWR springs are proven.
