    Clutch Basket

    GS1100EZ. The small gauge wound springs are tight, whereas the bigger ones are loose, and they have spacers! It doesn't look like the basket has ever been apart, but all the springs have yellow paint on them. I think I should replace the large springs, as adding more spacers or thicker ones seems a bit much. Where would I source them?

        I have a VERY nice modified, heavy duty hub if you want to buy one, or I can build yours.

          i am not much for the flyingbanasplit mod on a large GS 1100/1150.
          the mod is not addressing the real issue....that is the thin backing plate and the flexing the gear /backing plate goes through under severe conditions.
