My bike was stalling terribly when starting from still-standing before I had the ECU flash and fueling updated by 2wheel dynoworks. We tried leaving it to the computer by going 3/4 on the right idle screw and syncronizing the vacuum afterwards, but it only did so much. It did help, but didn't...
If you inspect the discs and they have heat damage (even if it's small) and you don't remember any time where you screwed the clutch due to a mistake, then it's probably long term slight slippage like I had. I really had no idea that I had any slippage, and I doubt I would have ever noticed if I...
Dear friends,
I write this short post as a warning. My S10 gained a lot of performance with the ECU flash and full exhaust upgrade that we installed, so it wasn't easy to identify the problem. I had been noticing for a while that the bike was accelerating a little less powerfully when the bike...
Second update: I realize that my discs must have been slipping for a while, probably since I did the exhaust and ECU flash upgrades. It's like another bike since upgrrading to the stiffer clutch springs. Sucks that it's "so hard" in comparison, but the OTR slave cylinder helps. Bike gained a lot...
Edit: I was too quick to speak; the weakest springs resulted in terrible slippage. Had to upgade to medium springs which are much harder. But no slippage. I don't know if I could've gotten away with 3 soft and 3 medium ones, but seeing as it was slipping heavily at max throttle around 4500 RPM I...
After seeing various recommendations on this forum, and due to compulsive purchasing issues... I bought the 2nd gen clutch basket and Barnett's pressure plate. I really had no issues with vibration, but I wanted the improved clutch graduation from the Barnett plate as the OEM conical pressure...
Updating this post. It took me a lot of money and a lot of time to find something that would work well for my use.
There's nothing wrong with the hyperpro spring upfront; the problem is that 1. the 20W oil that comes with it is absolutely inappropriate as it's a 70ish centistoke (viscosity) oil...
Yeah, I just went ahead and ordered the gasket and also the o-ring that I had forgotten initially.
Excited to get the Barnett's plate installed on the new clutch basket! Can't wait.
Sorry to revive this thread.
I've bought the Barnett pressure plate kit, 2nd gen basket and the Barnett kevlar plate kit.
I live in South America and frequently stand in unbearable traffic. Maybe I am just a pussy but I feel the OEM clutch is very hard compared to, eg., my XT660. I've bought...
