Bonneville America Forums Forums Technical Forums Performance Mods EBC clutch springs

Has anyone tried the EBC clutch springs? They are suppose to be 10% heavier than stock. I might try them with the big bore.

Hi Jeff

I know a few people have tried the springs check the link "HERE"

I see alot of posts on Barnett springs, none on EBC.

I have EBC springs in my 02 Bonnevile and also Thruxton springs. Two of each. Works quite well with my 78 HP 904 bike.
The EBC springs are slightly stronger than the Thruxton springs.

What was your thinking on mixing the springs?

i would go with barnett gold springs and be done with it

We are having a problem sourcing Barnett springs for a Triumph around here. The EBC springs are local, I'm going to give them a try.

Trying to get just the amount of pressure required. Has worked well for me with the approx. 70 ft lbs the engine puts out now at the max. torque peak.

Another solution can be to put a shim under the spring(s), depending on how much torque you have. The one from a spark plug works fine for instance. But a shim cannot be much thicker than that or you get coil binding.
