    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    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.

High RPM but no power at full throttle

My bike is running and I noticed on the 150 miles I rode today that when I am in any gear and I twist the throttle all the way the rpms will go from 4-6k rpm which I'm cruising at to 8k rpm without actually speeding my bike up. It sounds awesome like its running right but not sure what the issue is, sounds like it would if I were to shift to neutral and twist.
 
New springs and clutch plates.
At least, try to shim the springs if they are loose. ;)

Better yet, how would I shim to springs to get more pressure? Washer size... etc
 
Hi,

A set of clutch springs are cheap, get OEM. Have a look on my website, in the clutch section, for an idea of what you need to do. Check a parts fiche picture to see where your clutch springs go.


Thank you for your indulgence,
