Default autoclutch adjustment...

On the Z250 the three little bolts on side of the motor around a allen wrench impression are the clutch adjuster bolts...correct? So if I adjust the clutch to actuate at a higher rpm wouldnt that make wheelies easier from a complete stop? SHould I even fool with it. Well i am not going to be the one doing it, a friend/neighbor of mine races a YZ250 in the pro class around where I live and he says that it would work. So should i get it done?

this will usually just make your clutch slip all the way through the powerband, not to where it wont engage till a certain RPM

So if I tightened it what would that do? If i did it just a little bit more would that make it more of a solid feel all thru the power band? I imagine that if i overdid it would it make the quad stall at idle speed correct? I would kinda like a jumpy feel to it I like that lurchy power feeling. So please fill me in a bit more...

The adjustment just changes the freeplay, of the clutch.
You cant change the engagement rpm or firmness, without opening the case and change springs and fly wieghts.
If you tighten it too much, itll eventually become very hard to shift, and get into neutral, because it wont release. But while driving you wouldnt notice a thing, it wont effect performance.
