Ok Troops,
As I mentioned before I bought a NCY Performance Clutch which has bigger pads, but the Springs are to strong and require 4500 rpms to move my Trike.
So naturally I ordered 1000 NCY springs thinking well NCY Springs are made for the NCY Clutch(WRONG MOOSE BREATH).
The Springs do not fit they are to long. So I emailed a few of the dealers and the one I bought the springs from and asked what the springs in the NCY performance Clutch are rated at AND if they have Springs that FIT the Clutch. TO DATE NO ONE has responded because sorry to say they do not know shit.
So I took it onto myself to find out WHY the springs are to long and maybe help others save their hard earned money and NOT ORDER Different Rated Springs IF they purchased a NCY Performance Clutch.
I took the NCY Clutch apart and I took the OEM Clutch apart and found WHY the 1000,1500,2000 SPRINGS they sell you WILL NOT FIT the NCY Performance Clutch EVEN THOUGH the Springs are NCY SPRINGS(at least for the 150s).
The Reason is this, the Studs that the Pads go on are spaced Differently. The OEM Studs are spaced out 2 13/16" while the NCY Clutch Studs are 2 11/16". The 1000,1500,2000 are made to fit the 2 13/16" Clutch Brackets Studs.
So what I did is take the PADS off the NCY Mounting Bracket and took the OEM Clutch Bracket and SWAPPED the NCY PADS onto the OEM Bracket. I used the OEM SPRINGS as well which are EVEN LIGHTER than the 1000 rated Springs.
I installed them this morning and tested it out. SUCCESS!! The RPMS required to move the Trike are now right around 2200 RPMS, AWESOME!!
Now, I can even use the NCY 1000 springs if I want and are not a throw aways. The 1000 springs should require the RPMS to be around 3000 or so before they get thrown out and grab the bell.
