idk, i am confused as well but a few people at atvnation.com sware by the dalton clutch, and some people with the epi, have said that it has bad backshift characteristics, and skip, or jumping, i think im still going with the dalton, mabey wait a few days untill more turns up.

 

sorry had to bump this up...

based on the fact that ill have all those mods (exhaust/jet kit/air filter/and snorkel kit)

the dalton is a "dry" spring clutch

the EPI/HL is a "wet" spring clutch.

what on earth is the difference. I was told that it just engages at higher rpms (wet spring)

I plan to do prob 26 inch tires all around (1 inch bigger than stock)

maybe mudlites...maybe 589s...who knows.

I want to order this clutch kit tonight and have it next day aired for monday. However I cant find any info on which one is best. I want to possibly increase top end but thats the least of my concerns...its getting to that top end that i want to really increase. I'd like to be able to pull wheelies like that crazy guy did on the honda rincon videos.

I do a lot of riding in sand/mud/deep water and a bit of hardpack. basically all around but I do love to frig around in the mud and deep water.

When you get the clutch kit let me know all about it. I too am looking for something that will give me wheelie power. If I can't get it on the Vinson I may have to get a BF or a King Quad. Many thanks and look forward to your reviews.

 

i am confused on this, i still think from what i have read and heard that people love the dalton, and there people are great to deal with, i want more lost power back, heck lemme order it and if its no good, i will return it.

 

well I figured what the hell i dont really care much about the difference if any between the clutches now...either one of them will be a huge improvement over what the stock crap is giving me. Did you adjust your valves and stuff yet??

I just bought myself some iridium spark plugs for my vinson from www.sparkplugs.com

You guys have MODDED your Vinson. What kind of performance increase did you get? Was it worth the $$$?

 

Well my exhaust and jet kit combined with air filter really seemed to bring the bike to life...over whoops especially. Any small bumps if I hit the gas the bike literally jumps over them and catches air when I'd need some serious speed before.

well mike, it looks like i will have to postpone ordering my clutch.

i snapped a cv joint today, and the parts should be here next wensday, i needed a whole new cv axle assembly, and new wheel bearings. because everthing was toast, all for a grand total of 350$ looks like i am going to take the lift off, and get a set of holeshot atr's, and clutch eventually, i am selling my rm soon hopefully, and the $ i get from that i can deff get all the stuff.

Seems like lifts invariably lead to broken CVs. Bummer, but do a search on lifts and CVs breaking and the evidence is almost insurmountable.
Definitely took a lift off my list of "to-do's"

 

I think you guys are right. Everyone I know and heard about who have put lift kits on have broken something at one time or another.
