    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I just completed a 5000km plus ride from Alice Springs to Melbourne for the Australian round of the World Superbikes,with my 10yr old daughter as company and ballast. We had a great time. Now the old girl is feeling a bit tired after the gallop there and back or should that be canter. Anyway the clutch has started to slip at about 4000rpm then lock again. My question is whether I should replace springs with heavier set because of extra weight or stick with std. ones. Sorry about posting in wrong section. Regards Paul
 
I would go with new standard ones. But be advised to replace the spring bolts. they stretch very easily, especially when re-used.

I've found that out the hard way :oops: :oops: :oops: I've got some on order from JT's (aka crotchrocket.com) if they ever get here.
 
I changed to heavy duty springs and really hated it. Your clutch arm will get tired real quick- riding in traffic become pure misery. A new set of standard springs should be fine for pulling two up.
