400ex clutch

[onegtalon]

just did a 426 11:1 je kit, milled the cylinder to have true 11:1 have i think a stage 2 cam?

my question is my clutch is slipping already, and i have another stock clutch to put in but dont want to burn that up to. wondering if i can put washers under the clutch springs to increase the spring pressure for the clutch, kinda like shimming valve springs for seat pressure can i do this and has anyone else done this?

Get heavy duty springs and/or better yet an 8 plate basket. GL

The washer trick will work in a pinch....say you're at a track and want to finish riding for the day without the clutch slipping so bad. It does work to an extent.

But it is not a long term fix for a failing clutch. Do like these guys said and get some HD springs.
