OK guys couple questions I'm looking to buy a koso variator with 12 gram rollers and a hoca performance clutch with 1000rpms springs that are already on it ...

Should I change them to something bigger in rpms like the 1500 or 2000s also the main big clutch spring what should that be ?

Is all these springs based with rpms when the clutch actually engages the bell and makes it move ?

I'm buying all thisfrom the gy6store any reviews on them ?

Clutch springs hold the arms retracted above a given rpm so they don't drag,,,with a heavy trike I'd go with the 2000 rpms,,,also you need to find out what contra spring is in the machine now before you can make a determination

[icebear2009]

Well with the whole trike still being stock ? What u think ? Also the trike does begin to start moving until I reach about 4000 rpms

[icebear2009]

I would like to see the trike to start rolling at like 2000 rpms has good power and not loose to much top end either

How many miles on it?,,, seems like you should be starting to roll at 2500 rpms or so

[icebear2009]

About 1400 miles

[icebear2009]

What u thinking for all the springs then the main clutch springs and Contra spring etc ....so I do start rolling at 2500 again

[icebear2009]

I'm thinking clutch is pretty shot or something ....that's why I need to change all the springs and new clutch etc

Won't be able to tell what's going on till it gets apart and inspect,,,even with the extra weight of the trike set up there shouldn't be too much wear,,,even if you double the mileage cause of it being a trike 2800 miles is too early for things to be worn out,,,unless the belt is bad

On 2 of my 300cc Zodiac's I have 4,000 miles on each and still very strong with only 1,400 mile hard to believe you need stronger springs. May be you expect more out of your trike then it can give you have a 150cc right?

I may be wrong but I think either the variator or the belt or both are suspect
