Ink pen springs are a good as replacements for starter clutch springs. may need to be slightly trimmed. Put the trimmed end into the clutch housing and the nice flat factory end into the plunger. Use and old spring to gat an approximate length.

Springs are only 1.89 at Alpha Sports. Cheaper than most good pens.
I am one of the GSR cheapazzes...LOL
I post as a VIABLE and SAFE option if your up at the cabin, on vacation and can get then tools to remove the rotor ( I have stopped at gargaes and asked to use a wrench or two in my days ) and the ship from Japan is still another 8 days away.
Or if your packed and ready to go and one snaps at zero dark thirty the morning of the trip.

I use to use them as straws for snorting coke back in the day...but i dont have any use for them these days. A pack of 5 is like 1 dollar bat dollar general.

And they are a whopping 77 CENTS at G&S Suzuki.

hey Steve, if you bought a few dozen of them at that price, you could sell them to all the people who have fitted the springs in their starter clutches so they can repair their pens :lol:
Steve...according to Adrian they would be useful as 450 fork springs as well...LMAO.

You do not seem to see a lot of click pens anymore.
I prefer a UniBall or an Itoya gripper myself.
I have a 1952 Shaffer fountain pen that I used for writing essays in univ but you just ask for an ink pot at Staples and see the looks they give you.
