what are the numbers on my clutch one part has 1 2 3 and the other has 1 2 3 my dealer told me 1-1 but will another set up give memore top end and if so what setup.he also told me to preload it a 1/4 turn is this correct and im not sure my belt is tight enough if you can help any at all i will be sooo thankful i trust you guys awhole lot more than my dealer thanks up front

 

Thos numbers are holes located in the helix and the clutch where the spring ends go in. By changing where the sprin goes, you change the tension of the spring. I have an HPD violet secondary spring in mine set on the 2-2 postion and like that setup. I am not sure what position the stock spring is in, but setting it to the 2-2 position would probably help some, but a new spring would be more noticeable. Also, you wind the movable clutch sheave 1/3 turn counterclockwise before pusing the helix all the way into the splines on the clutch.

 

whats this i hear about you trading your srammy for a honda

 

Read the "As promised, Pics of my new 450R" thread[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

so the way i put my spring in will affect stuff? oh **** i didnt even look. i just made sure the x's were lined up. dam it.

 

Im refering to the secondary clutch. The primary clutch has no particular way for the spring to go in

 

good one big bad real good. by going with the 2-2 set up did you lose any top end and what did it give you ver all

 

ok good i about **** my pants since its 10:15 am leaving at 6:30 in the morning for attica and i dont ahve time to change anything. thanks jason

 

Your secondary settings affect your back shift and your belt effitioncy.The more tension on the spring the more on the belt(effects topend)But some times more pres is good like for trial ridding and hills.Where topend isnt that importaant.

 

so for duning do you think I should put it at 1-3 Most tension??

I just need to brake down and get that aaen book
