I hear a lot about roller clutches and clutch kits.....what are they, i'm pretty certain about the blutch kit, isnt that stonger (stiffer) clutch springs and bearing etc.


but what the heck is the roller clutch....does it keep the clutch always engaged, but it has some type of centrifical clutch?

Please explain...

In a nutshell the OEM helix is aluminum and slides on plastic butons as the clutch engages and disengages. With a roller kit the helix is steel and metal bearings are used (instead of plastic parts) creating less friction, thereby increasing efficency (not HP).
