A bud of mine asked me to put a H-C kit in his 2000 SX-R 700 which was pretty straight forward for me as I've tinkered with my SRX equipped with H-C's for years now.I pulled his primary off and took it apart to find a broken spring and a somewhat stuck sliding sheave,it was very tight on the spider,but otherwise ok.Well he took it for a ride with the new clickers and now he tells me he lost some top end to the point where another bud with a stock V Max deluxe will go by him on top end.What he has told me is that it has all kinds of bottom end but at about 140km/h (85 mph) it falls flat where before with the stock broken parts!!! it would pull to 160km/h (100 mph).
I'm going to go look at it tomorrow night and verify a few things myself but other than changing to a multi angle helix,presently stock,what else could cause the drop in top end like that?The only thing done to it was the installation of the H-C's using the gray spring,only one in the kit,no gearing changes or secondary alterations.I've got a couple of helix's I could try in it but I'm not sure if the engine has the power to utilize them,ones my SRX one 47* and the other is a Hauck W (54/44 ?) one.
