best replacement clutch

['blanshee'man]

My clutch is getting pretty tired so im looking into a new set of plates and springs, even a boss and/or basket depending on the state of mine. So has anybody got an after market clutch that they like or dislike? are there any brands i should stay away from? Or should i just grab a OEM replacement? Thanks guys

Bernett all I run when I need to change the clutch. Little more expensive. But I think it is worth it.

I have heard Tusk HD clutches are good for the price also.
I just recommend using 3 of the HD springs and 2 stock springs.

Barnett is probably the best.. But I am cheap and have had no problems with my tusk clutch kit... and I don't treat my blaster very well haha.

Hmmmm ok thanks guys ill look into barnett and tusk. But keep going with the opinions!

Also are you sure you clutch is worn out? Because my 250R just needed some adjusting. The blaster I knew needed a clutch because it was coming out in my tranny oil !

replaced the oil last week and its a new cable adjusted properly, im getting a full pull. it just dont grab very good any more. the damn thing is nine years old anyway! lol and i learned how to use a clutch on it.

The way I look at it is I have not had problems with any of my Tusk parts I have bought and they are much cheaper than the higher end parts. Could buy a few sets for the money of the more expensive stuff.

i still gotta put my new tusk kit in yet...interesting thing fioz...whats up with using 2 stock and 3 HD springs?

The HD springs definitely make a noticeable increase in the pull... lever snaps back harder LOL.

It makes the clutch easier to pull in. With all the HD springs it can get hard to pull after riding along time. I guess it really is a personal prefferance. I just like an easy use clutch lever.

or the ole 5 knuckle shuffle on the peter pump helps alot bahahahhaha!!!





sorry dude , just 1 of those days lol

 

['blanshee'man]

hahaha its cool

I needed a good laugh! lol thank ya!

 

[dygz21]

Seriously though... the stiffer springs definitely make my arm tired after riding hard for a bit. They are probably almost a 1/4" longer than the stock springs. You could always put the stock springs in with washers for just a little more tension.

Yea that is an option too, but i think i like the idea of the hydro clutch
