What is the general concensus on kits? Yay, Nay or depends on kit? Is it better to stick to OEM for ease of tuning? Is OEM cheaper?

for ease of tuning the clickers are better. Clickers have virtually infinite adjustability, and you can really throw a lot of weight in them for some awesome belt force and kick arse holeshots. Racers basically only use the tuneable weights, and more and more trail riders are using them as well. Take some time to set them up how you like them, and let em rip.

I've had trouble with H.C. two piece weights (formerly called Hammer Time's) In a Viper ,rough trails can cause contact with the belly pan and the extended moving shoulder weights of the H.C.'s. I recomend sticking with one piece H.c.'s .

I've got one piece HC's in my SRX and I love it. Pulls really hard out of the hole.

In the Heel clicker kit I got the STS10-Y or something like that, it came with the 3 arms, tons of diffrent screws ans washers which are the weights for adjusting and two primary springs a gray and then a red one. One seaon with them on my Viper and I like them but still do not have them tuned correctly.

The heel clickers require alot of tuning. I finally have mine where I like them after two years and many, many different setups and helixs. Turk helped out with most of it, but it depends on your sled, weight, style of riding, and temperatures. I finally kept throwing more weight than suggested at it till it pulled. If I had it do all over again, I would buy something else. I know of many other riders whom have said the same thing. You get absolutely NO help from Super Torquer. The out of the box set up for the Viper they suggested was a waste of time! If you dont have the time, go with Yamaha weights.

Yep.. tor it up pretty good. Had to patch it to keep snow out. Super Torqer is sending me a set of their one piece H.c. weights f.o.c.yamaholic22 said:that contact must've ripped up your bellypan pretty good hey? What is H.C. doing about it?

You may want to consider Heavy Hitters also. We have run both and they seem to offer equal all around performance. They are a similar design. The HH's seem better on bottom, the HC's seem better on top. The heavy hitters have a strong history with minimal breakage. The heel clickers seem to be slightly more prone to breakage.

why is it that none of the aftermarkets can design a weight that DOESN'T BREAK?

Heavy Hitters do not break. I have yet to see them fail. I have only heard of one instance that they have broke.

well at least someone is getting it right then. I mean honestly though, a lot of the systems out there have had some major breakage issues. You would think that that would be ONE THING they would be sure to design for.
