Re: Ever changed the clutch springs on a Spree?

You could try and go with stronger clutch springs but there is a hit and miss possibility that it might not work out as intended. The idea is to tune the clutch engagement right when the pipe generates backpressure (harmonic resonance) to produce power. - If the clutch engages before that point, it...

Ever changed the clutch springs on a Spree?

I would like to increase my take off speed and I was thinking some stiffer clutch springs might do it.

Anyone have any experience with this?

OOOoooOoOOooOOOOOOO and you could do an ultra bore kit to make it 70cc and try to make it look like the tie fighter from star wars.... maybe....
