Test Dummy
On my 700MM I have SLP pipes. The setup I'm using is almost straight from the SLP spec sheet, jetting and clutching. 8CR weights, 13.3 inner, 10.3 outer. blue/white/blue primary spring. 45 deg. helix with green spring at 70 twist. It calls for stock gearing but because I have stretched it to 162" Tom Hartman suggested I go to 20/40 gearing. The thing runs great on the trails. The RPMs are moving right up to the proper peak(8700-8900) when I hit the throttle w/o running down the trail and are staying cool. All seems to be well. But when I get into deep snow which is where I ride most of the time my RPM's are dropping out of the power band at 3/4 throttle to make controled turns through the trees or carving in the snow my belt is slipping and heating up. If I open the throttle wide open it will build back up to the desired RPM's and not slip . I'm confident that my clutches are clean and right and all is well with all their componets(new). I have messed with the twist on the secondary by increasing it to 80 deg. etc. and even tried a silver spring. Could this possibly be to much weight on the inner hole of my weights? I was thinking of trying this to see if I get an overev situation on the trails. If I'm at 3/4 trottle should Rpm's be in the power band? Does anty of this make sense. Soc
