Jmac. Just got the woods 60% in my bike this week. Made a world of difference for me. I run almost the same set up as you.

Do you guys think the 60% springs will give me problems with the teeth breaking off? Or should I be allright? I am ordering them tomorrow so I am trying to get all my questions answered before then.

I think you'll be fine. The problem I had was with the stiffer Pami springs.

The RWs 60% are fine for what you are needing, but don't be afraid of the Pami's I've never had a problem and I'm running 3 sets.

I had to clutch mine to get it to come up, then I read about cutting 4 to 6 coils off the carb slide spring. I cut off 5 coils the other day and man it works great, it now comes up very easy with just the throttle and the response is alot quicker. What a difference. I would recommend this to anyone with a stock carb.
