Do you think it removes more friction than it creates? or maybe it's more moving parts and more complicated than necessary?

Hoca makes one and partsforscooters has it for less. Cant hurt. I prefer this one. Probably better at vibration control.

The concept makes sense, you going to try it? Let us know if it makes a difference.

looks like simple plastic piece sans roller bearings. How is it working out for you?

[twowheeler]

On its way

[cdoublejj]

any difference?

[twowheeler]

Yes. More "fluid"

I believe anything you put between the spring and the clutch face compresses the spring a tad and raises rpms a little so you might have to mess with weights.

I would be kind of hesitant to trust the one with ball bearings in it. A few years ago they were selling a thrust bearing similar to owners of expensive spring powered air rifles. They came apart and ruined a couple hundred dollars worth of parts in a $7-800 gun. Thrust bearings that rotate only part of a circle tend to pound a detent in the races. Same with steering bearings in bikes/scooters. I would hate to have a ball get loose in the clutch area.

eh i guess that's what i have a spare scooter for. sounds like it might be worth trying.

i wonder if it fits all GY6 or if it's specifically for the 50cc or 150cc.
