I have tried searching this but came up with nothing. I want to know what the max rpms are supose to be on a 1999 Vmax 600 triple. I don't think I have the correct spring in one of my clutches and it will cause it to over rev when wide open. I have had no luck finding this.
 
It will rev well past 9000!!! I was thinking it was wrong spring but was reserching and was thinking clutch weights maybe?? I dont know anything about snowmobile clutches.
 
Thanks, i will check it out. I reworded my search and had better results on this topic aswell. But I am new to snowmobiling and its a short season aswell so i will probably be full of questions till I get the whole clutch thing figured out.
 
your first step will be to post up what you've got now
primary weights
primary spring

secondary spring and setting (2 numbers 1 on clutch 1 on helix)
helix

from there the clutch guys can get you in the right direction
 
The 99 SX tripples had a habbit of over reving with the stock factory clutching...they must have made more power then Yamaha expected. They have a real nice flat HP curve up top so they can perform OK with an over rev but they will pull better @8500RPM.
 
took it for a spin to see what it was doing and write it down. This is what i got: clutch engages @ 4500...clutch shifts(if this is the right term) @6000-6500 rpm. sled will do 25 mph @ 4000 rpm and 55mph @8000 rpm. Dont know if this sounds right. maxes out at exactly 9000rpm.

primary clutch seems to be blue/?/blue and the secondary looks to be all black and i have no idea on the weights

I need to get it on the lake to do more testing, maybe in a few more days and it will be safe to do so. I really have no smooth areas test.
