So, lately I have been building quite a few big bore engines and even though I haven't ran into a problem "yet", I expect soon I may find a need as I'm getting ready to build some high torque and high compression engines that may require beefier starter clutches to go with the performance starters. (I'm building all the way up to 232cc) So, in my searching so far, what I gather is that the high performance starter clutches have more "spraqs" (aka roller bearing)... In addition, some appear to have different style needle bearings. Now, the whole point of these aren't for increased performance as far speed; supposedly the additional spraqs act to distribute the load of the starter clutch, hence being able to support higher compression/torque. Anyone have any insight, experience or first hand knowledge with these?

Anyone have any insight, experience or first hand knowledge with these? How's it going buddy? , I have an ncy HP starter clutch, and I really like it. The ncy had many rollers like the second pic and better needle bearings. O don't get the slip like I used to with the stock starter clutch. My stock one when bad and was making a loud weird noise coming from behind the right side engine cover. I was worried it was the crank bearings but I got lucky and found it was the starter clutch.

Actually the ncy has rollers 10 rollers in the starter clutch. So its closer to the first pic , but with an extra roller. I thought it had more , but i can't find the pics of mine that I took .

Just FYI - my Honda Goldwing has only 3 "sprags" (rollers).
