clutching help

[M-Max]

2001 700 Mountain Max
Ride powder between 3000 and 6500
Mods - Bender pipes and Atacc

Current clutching is stock except for

Aluminum Rivets in both holes
* Yel-Wht-Yel (45 pre / 2.5 rate)
* 60deg Secondary Pre-load
I am turning about 9000rpms
How do I get it to what everyone seams to agree the target RPMs are
8500.
I am no clutch guru. I think more tip weight but am hoping for suggestions.
Thank You.

Change the inner rivet to a 4.5 gram & leave the tip as is. If you load the tip your backshift will suck. For mountain riding u want a lot of inner weight & lighten up the tip so you get good backshift climbing & in deep pow.

cool Thanks.....

I hate to be a pain but
how about clutch torque specs.

I usually go about 80 ft-lbf, back it off, then tighten to 60 ft-lbf

thanks for helping the newbie guys.

After you get the rpm's right, if the back shift is not to your liking add twist to the secondary. I'm at 90 degrees.

90 degreees is BOO....

With what you have, you'll see a little more power if you over rev to 89 or 9 and settle at 87. Try it that little sled will run. Also a multi angle helix will make you smile.

Went for a quick burn.
Off season additions of
ATACC, 5 1/2" Rox riser, Mountain Performance Transfer kit,
and Turk's clutching all appear to be good investments.
especially the clutching and transfer kit.
