Well I cannot sleep so I'm up thinking of ways to get my CVT tuned before my 1000 main spring comes in. Since my stock spring is opening slightly too soon , I beleive I found a way to fix that. If I buy a washer to place between the main spring and the clutch pad assembly, I believe it may stiffen up enough so my clutch pulley stays closed just long enough for me to reach 7500 rpms, and still end up opening fully. I can buy a big enough washer that is about 1mm or so thick , or possibly buy 2 of them just in case 1 is not enough. Anyone think this is a good or bad idea ?

Wow , its funny , I just read were someone shimmed the stock spring with a 1/4 inch shim ! Lol. 1/4 inch is way to much. He lost a good bit of top end " I wonder why ?,lol " I'm really thinking this will work! I wish I would have thought of this before ordering the 1000 main spring , lol.

I cannot think of any reason why that wouldn't work. That's a really good idea. Definitely let me know how that turns out. You saw my other thread where I am not quite happy with the 1500. I think you are on to something.

I think you are on to something. The k&s variator I have is nice , but it takes a little getting use to , to get it tuned in. The koso I had took 9 to 10 gram weights and I was using a 2000 main spring . I was running around 67 mph on a straight run at around 7500 rpms, but the belt was not climbing fully in the variator. I was at 66mph at 7000 rpms with the k&s variator with 15 gram weights and a stock spring , and had full climb on the variator . I have more room to pick up some top end speed , that's where I'm having a little bit of an issue. But I should get it figured out soon . |
