Post by: $FLIP$ on October 03, 2009, 10:11:39 AM
So its time for a new clutch its kinda really over due but cold weather is coming on So im bout to tear it down and do some much needed maintenance. Anyway thinkin of goin with the Barnett clutch kit? Yes or No??? I mainely just ride the street but I do ride little hard & do street race. I have small shot of nitrous for when I do go to the track so was wondering if the Barnett would be Good or any other suggestions clutch wise or upgrades while Im n there?? Also time for new Plugs again been kinda cutting out lately any suggestions on Best set of Plugs to run?? THanks!!!!!

Stay away from those junk ass barnetts. Stick to OEM clutch pack one of the site sponcers can help you out with a cheeper price than the dealer. On plugs, I run a 75 shot weton my 1397 (street no track) and use the stock plugs, just changed mine after 11k mile and they were a little worn but still ok. I saw tests with the iridiums and there was no gain and 3 times the price of stock. But that comes down to personal preferance just like what kind of oil to use.

I heard that you can't get much better than stock...the aftermarket ones wear and fail much faster.

If you are going with H/D Clutch Springs add the slave support also.  But stock with the clutch all the way.  :thumb:

WOW!!! Pirate 19,000 on factory plates with 3 on turbo!!! Thats pretty Damn good cause mine is an 03' and just hit 8k and my clutch is bout gone.

I will be cruising 2-3 gear pop the clutch and leave bout 500 ft black mark or take off in 1st and lay in to it and just eat the back tire up  :lol: I guess we will see wat they look like when i tear it down  :thumb:

I'm due a new clutch on my 2000 and 84,000 miles of 160 mile commuter trips, so it hasn't been ridden hard.
I guess I'll have to change the steel and fibre plates and springs, but what about the clutch basket?

I've read on the Net that these can wear out and I've been riding mine for about 15,000 miles with one of the spindle thingies broken clean off, after a learning experience fitting Smithbusa's gear position indicator.  :oops:
