I was expecting better response at take off, instead I got better top end, around 110 km/h at 7000 rpms, before putting the red spring on it topped at km/h on 8500 rpms. Not sure what the factory spring is, but it gives better response at take off, it was hard to do it on a gravel road without spinning the wheel

I once ordered a 1500 rpm main and it was shorter and with less coils . it turned bout to be a peice of u know what. The red main should keep u in a so called " lower gear " longer , however after break in the 2000 main will give you the same if not better top end . atleast that's what I've always got from them . always order the ncy springs. Also a good 2000 main will also give the feeling of dropping into a lower gear up hills. Ive heard of some say they were sent a 50cc main instead of a 150cc main .

I like this configuration for long trips (cruising), I can go WOT without pushing too much the engine, I like the stock spring aggressive take off for urban riding, I'm thinking on buying an extra clutch set and change between both according to the occasion, one for highway, constant WOT, and the other for urban "stop and go" setting.

First , if your stock spring gives you better take off then there is something wrong with the 2000 rpm spring you bought. Next , if you figure out the first problem , a slight adjustment of the variator weights will give more or less takeoff and will also change top end. This way you can adjust for what type of riding you want by only changing the weights.

Also if you plan on using a 2000 main spring make sure you always use a quality belt . I prefer gates Kevlar "aramid" belts . the 2000 main will put much more stress on the belt. I've been using one "2000main" for over 3 yrs and I really like how my scoot runs with it.

I tried the 2000 rpm springs and they ware the clutch pads out fast due to the clutch not engaging until nearly 4000 rpms. I do like the 1500 rpm clutch springs. The 2000 rpm clutch springs are good for racing but other than that they are very hard on the CVT.
