standard grey clutch shoe, the top end is good its just slow coming out of a turn. the engine is runnin strong and tuned pretty good.
thanks
do you have the lightweight shoes?...... the ones with the holes in them? you should not need 1.4mm with a "good" spring. maybe your spring is at life's end. grey shoe is OK, but a lot of people like the yellow shoe.
like above, get a new spring... super hard at 1.2mm works for me, but i'm going to start trying the new MSR springs. I run 16/50 nearly everywhere unless the traction won't handle it, then I drop to a 16/49.
what's your endplay without the bearing or shims behind the clutchbell? what is it with the inner bearing and shims installed? you should shoot for 0.5mm without anything behind the bell, then add the bearing and shims till the bell does not rub the clutch shoe. it should then measure 0.5mm or slightly less on the endplay.
