Hi,
I have a '99 Yamaha 600sx. I put a Hauck 760 Big Bore kit in it a couple years back. I have acquired a set of hauck husher triple pipes on it as well. I started off, (while it was stock), with a hauck #2 clutch kit, then they sent me a new helix and a spring for the big bore kit. Now that I have pipes, I need a hauck #4 clutch kit. If I purchase the #4 kit, I will have 3 oboslete helixes. How can I tell what angle they are to see if I can resue them, they are progressive cut helixes to possibly have one of them cut instead of buying yet another package. I was also considering trying a setup on my own, does anyone have any ideas? I was also thinking since i went from a bone stock 600, and am now running a piped 760...do you think i can gear a little taller without sacrificing low end snort? Any comments or ideas is greatly appreciated. (I'd also like to dyno the thing to get a bead on my shift RPM if I were to clutch it myself.)
Also, I know somebody that does their own "overdrive" tweak to get more shift out, has anyone done that with a yammie, and if so, what does a guy need to do to achieve that? His cat kills me every time we race, I'd like to make it closer. Thank you in advance!

What Hauck Helixes do you have, they are stamped with a letter on them

I have a "J" (#2 clutch kit), and a "V" (Big Bore no pipes kit) so far, and also have a 45-39 from my '95 VMax 4, and then the stock 47 degree straight angle helix. Thanks!

The "J" is a straight 45 and the "V" is a 51/45

Thanks! I am trying to figure out what lettered helix is on #4 kit they said I needed. How are you able to tell what the angles are? If I wanted to put in a custom setup, do you have any ideas? =)

I can let ya know what set up i am running......but I don't have the big bore kit in my sleds so it is probabally different. look up TURK and send him a private message concerning your application. Odds are he can help

Sure, if you don't mind. What are your thoughts on gearing. Do you think a guy with my setup could gear a tooth or so taller without giving up low end accelleration? By the way, how are you able to determine the ramp angles on those helixes? Is there a way to measure them??? I appreciate your help.

Measure them on a digital cad machine. I'm a CNC Machinist for a living so i have access to all the tools and machinery to make anything. I just made all new greaseable bushings for my front and rear suspension also.

Those pipes make power @8950-9100
I have 2 different set ups that I use
8ca weights w 2.4g in the tip, inner empty, stock spring, 47/41 helix with stock secondary @60-70 wrap
and
8df weights w 4.5g in both holes, stock springs, 51/43 helix @60 wrap
you could probably get away with running srx ratio gearing

Thanks for the information, are those setups (and your SX's) 600s or 700s or a both?
On the gearing, when you say SRX, would you be referring to a 600 or a 700? I think stock gearing varies by a couple teeth on the bottom gear.
Thanks again!

23/38 is the stock gearing on a SRX 700. Both set ups are from my my sleds, SX-R 700's

I called Hauck and he said to try the following setup:
1. Primary Spring: Y-G-Y (4700 RPM engagment)
2. Flyweight: Stock Weights. Currently I have a 4.5g (Inner) and a 5.5g (Outer) He said it may be pretty close when I put the pipes on bc it will create more RPM. Shift right now is 8300-8500, want to be shifting 8800-900 (like you indicated)
3. Run the 23-38 gearing so i can use the same chain (also like you indicated)
4. Run the hauck red secondary spring (Start with setting 9-2)
5. Use my Hauck "V" Helix (51-45)
How do you think it will run against a very well tuned F-7 across the lake?
Thanks Johnny and Turk, you guys were pretty much spot on.
