Stiffer clutch springs = less or no clutch slipping.

The heavier spings will not help a clutch that may already have started to slip. The springs should be put in before there is a problem.

Hey omaha, did you read that shootout in the latest Dirt Wheels, between the pred and the craptor. Those guys are such a bunch of idiots. One of their judging criteria was how much of a roost can a bike throw at the top of a dune???? Supposedly the pred is not very good at that move, so the bike is a piece of junk I guess.

omahapredator, I don't have a Ds anymore and this is still where I hang out, great people here.
If your Preddy isn't modded out, most likely you won't need clutch springs, it sounds like you might have another issue going on, is that a common problem on preditors? It would cost big buck, but On my ds I had the gears back cut, then it was so smooth, and never misses a shift.
