That's a nice little kit Daniel. Well thought out too.

 

62 HP eh? Not quite there yet but it's nice to see simple/affordable kits to make the transition as I add more HP. :thumb:

 

Whats the difference in the springs vs stock?

 

Im not gonna quote a % on spring pressure because the quoted pressures seen are WAY OFF...
if the EBC springs are %30 then these are easily %50 stiffer
These springs are the stiffest on the market (ASV shorties not recommended)
comparable to the YFZ RON woods clutch springs... without the name

 

Good Job DL.Great info.Thanks!

 

If someone is worried about excessive clutch lever pull, would it help just to replace the half fiber will a full and leave the stock springs? Or even scattering three new springs along with leaving three stock springs?

 

THE problem with just installing the fiber is it will still slip but will slip all the clutches evenly....the added spring pressure is what makes this setup work well together...

this upgrade it to eliminate as much slip as possible......

u can try 3 springs if u like but i recommend ditching the shorti lever for a standard length and deal with the extra clutch pull...

its always a trade off when upgrading for power

 

Thats one thing I was concerned about was the clutch pull getting really stiff. I know the holding power is better however

 

the clutch pull on a standard lever is stiffer but still modest....... its just the ASV shorty levers that make it a PAIN to pull.. standard asv's are just fine

 

I might give it a try here in the near future. I would probly replace all my fibers though due to run time on the motor. Can you get 8 fibers for those who want to replace them all at once? Do you recommend replacing the steels as well?

 

yes u can do all the oem fibers ,, i have yet to see a set of steels that needed replacement unless they were badly discolored.. but we can do those as well

 

great thread DL700!

 

its just weird that the topic has never came up before...all my local guys get this treatment

 

To be honest I can't believe someone didn't come up with a kit like this a long ass time ago, I think it would be a great idea for people just buying new bikes, your stock clutches could last for a long long time with this kit.

 

I've had trouble with that little plate just breaking .

 

So how long will my clutch last with stronger springs from TQS, but with that little fiber? I just changed my clutch to this set up, and make 64hp. Wish I would have known you can use a full size fiber then.

 

depends on the springs and the type of riding... most will only notice a slipping clutch when its too late.. and will just be loosing hp in the meantime...

launching in the sand if the biggest load it will see, and a good clutch vs a slipping one will be the difference between wheeling on a +6 arm or not ...

 

Similar to the YZ clutch mod YFZ guys have been doing for years. Not surprising to see since the Raptor and YFZ run the exact same springs and fibers.


Who makes those springs DL?

 

Pretty sure these are the Ron woods springs. Same springs we sell in our HD kits.

 

yfz fibers are the same? if so I have some of them in the garage

 

YFZ and Raptor run the exact same fibers.

 

This is also the same clutch mod done to trx450's. The crf's come with all full sized fibers and the trx comes with the same setup as the raptor. First thing you'll notice is the clutch seems to grab quicker. There's less slip as you let the lever out which is exactly the point of the mod.

 

yea i had the same problem as stronken 784 but thanks for the good tip man but i have a ready done it plus i add a extra plate to make a tighter. put in the first fiber than 2 plates

 

I use this kit in my bike and it is a great upgrade. The clutch lever got a little bit tighter, just enough for it to grab faster when power shifting. It definetly grabs way better than before. highly recommend especialy for the $$.:thumb: for a great upgrade
