this website seems professional and set up awsome all the yamaha nuts in one spot. ive always had yamaha sleds and always thought their fit and finish was always the best. i just added a new sled to my yamaha collection a 2000 sxr 600. newest sled ive ever owned been trail riding my 93 vmax4 for the last three years and i need a nice breath of fresh air that i think this sx 600 can offer. i got it dirt cheap because the guy couldnt figure out the primary spring was broke. it comes with a bender clutch set up but the primary is broke its orange. i threw an old yamaha green white green i think and was pulling to many rpm. what would be a good compairable yamaha spring i could use in stead of the bender orange. srx spring y-w-y ? thanks
 
on my 2001 SXR600 I use the primary spring that is stock...Y-G-Y.Gives about a 4000 engagement. G-W-G and Y-W-Y have higher preloads and you will over rev about 500 rpm and engage at about 4500 or a tad more.

I am now testing my sxr600 clutching with 8CR-10 weights.I use the G-W-G primary with it.I have 4.5 g inner rivets and .8with Red Spring at 80 wrap.Seems to be good.RPM's are around 8450-8500 wot.I need to try it out in a long stretch to see if the rpm's will stay there..but feels good.

list what the rest of your clutch components are. :wel:
like he said...what weights are in the primary..what helix and spring you using..what track and gearing is on the 600.Have to tune everything in order to work half decently.
 
everything bender i didnt weigh the primary weights i think there bender. bender helix dont know the degree. bender orange primary. stock green secondary spring if thats stock on a 2000 sxr. assuming a bender clutch kit was bought and applied to the sled. gearing, track everything stock except for a stupid snowstuff can
 
i called bender two weeks ago to get all the info on what i had they said they wont tell me what the helix degree is. the weights came with the kit they dont look like stock weights. the primary spring was broke it was an orange bender spring that came with the bender clutch kit. i just wanted to throw a yamaha spring in there compairable to the bender orange spring. when i have the money im gonna ditch the bender set up go all yamaha. i really dont wanna deal with bender or put a bender spring back in.
 
if you look on the inside of the helix it will be engraved with a code, list it here, might be one someone has checked and can tell you what angle it is.

example "9870c", means its for a 98 srx 700 with cold air kit.
