Thanks Pete. Very helpful.
Just waiting for my clutch cover gaskets to turn up, I've ordered 3 to get me started. You wouldn't believe it, but I'm actually using my pig as a posty at the moment. I've got an acreage run which is over 100 k's every day. I killed a few of my bikes all within a few weeks and had to resort to the pig. Put a set of roady's on from the XT660X. Sure makes work fun. https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-w...o/IMAG0063.jpg https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-Q...o/IMAG0077.jpg Robo |
Still very much contemplating the clutch pretend and thanks for all the input. What rev range does the clutch engage and disengage at. And what difference did the stronger springs make to that. I'm wanna those riders who likes to plod when he can. And finally (I know you haven't tried yet but difference would u expect the heavier wedges would make to the aforementioned figures.
(It's gonna be difficult to get the money from the misses for this one). |
that can be adjusted... springs / wedge weight...
Rekluse say there should be a very slight drag at idle but not enough to move the bike foward... But because I use it on the road " intersections etc" i set mine just above that so you can't feel any drag... So the bike is wanting to move at 200 / 300 rpm above idle... Full disengaugement would be about the same... when the clutch speed drops low enough for the clutch springs to over ride the centafugle force of the weights... stonger springs .. the clutch stack works against the spring just as in a normal manual clutch.. when rideing you can see the clutch lever play increase as the Rekluse unit exspands & compresses the clutch springs... how the Auto / manual works in one unit... EG... Say you are able to open the clutch stack 5mm by pulling the lever but the rekluse unit can only exspand 3mm .. so holding the clutch lever in and rev the motor the Rekluse unit exspands 3mm but the stack is open 5mm So still has 2mm of clearance so no drive... Then let the clutch lever out and the clutch engages just as in a normal clutch... same when moveing pull the clutch lever & you exspand the clutch stack more than the Rekluse unit can exspand , So no drive...

Thanks good info.

Another unit is the "rev lock dyna ring" works like the Rekluse EXP...
But uses 30 ball bearing that travel in tappered slots instead of the 6 wedge shaped weights Rekluse use... the rev lock can be tuned by the amount of balls you use to alter the weight.. & you can also put tunstion balls in which are heavyer than steel balls.. I would like to get my hands on one... they sound very tuneable.. |
How's the price compare?
Did anyone do an install guide for the rekluse (xt660 specific) with pictures can't seem to find it? |
Perez you wrote this earlier, just wondering why
If you do get a EXP .. put the 6 red spring in it... it comes set with 3 red & 3 blue..remove the blue & replace them with the 3 reds suplyed with it... Anyway I just got permission from her indoors. And purchased an exp, so excited. Any more advice on the install and are the ebc springs necessary? |
Quote:
6 red = lightest spring presure 3 blue & 3 red = med spring presure "as set from the factory" 6 blue = highest spring presure.. buy putting the 6 red springs in the weights have less spring presure to force against...So my thinking was/is that the EXP ring could exspand easyer at lower revs... but then it would also return slower as well.. |
Thanks again. So now after your experience, what setting would you think works best for the xt
