I am looking to reduce the clutch pull effort without making it slip.

What colour Barnett springs are lightest to heaviest? Do Barnett make clutch springs that are lighter than stock and still work with the power our bikes produce?

Know of any other vendor who makes springs?

I think it goes gold green red but I could be wrong. Why would you want ones lighter than stock?

For a reduced clutch pull. I am having some issues with my left hand. I can still use the stock clutch but think a lighter pull might help. I commute in traffic most days and thats a lot of clutch work.

You may want to look into converting to a hydraulic clutch then. Can't be too difficult, all the parts are out there...

Hydraulics is a little more involved than what I was looking for. Just looking for a lighter clutch pull and wondered how the Barrnet springs rated against stock.
