[QUOTE="69ST, post: 168634, member: 5"] That might work. Be advised that, without some hardcore engineering data, spring testing equipment, a lot of math...and field testing...the effects of unknown spring swaps are wildly unpredictable. IMHO, normal centrifugal clutch action is a plus, with this setup...especially on an ATV. Keep in mind that the manual secondary clutch was not engineered to take all of the slip. The discs are a lot different than those used with other manual clutches; they have less friction material and what's there has different friction properties, mainly "sticktion" (an actual engineering term, meaning static friction) that makes clutch action more like a light switch. FYI, your last statement is incorrect. Once the centrifugal clutch is above engagement rpm, it becomes a solid drive component. The clutch basket should have coil springs to take the hit of transient shock loading. [/QUOTE]
