EVR vs Speedymoto springs

[Crank1000]

I just saw that Desmoworks now carries stainless clutch springs made by EVR. I currently have the Speedymoto springs, and noticed a significant increase in effort needed to pull the clutch. It's not that big of a deal when I'm actually riding, but sitting at signals gets a bit tiring. Just curious to see if anybody bought the EVR ones and if they feel the same as stock, or if they are as stiff as the Speedymoto ones. Thanks.

Ummm.. you shouldn't let the bike sit at the signal with it in gear and the clutch pulled in. Just slip into neutralwhen rolling to a stop, then drop it into gear when you take off; It's better for the bike. Cheers, Martyn

I was under the impression that all aftermarket ss springs are of a thicker gauge, which ultimately increases lever pull. I could be wrong though.

I think aftermarket slave cylinders are a godsend and every Ducati owner should consider. Huge improvement! Just my opinion.

F that, watch your 6 and be ready for anything. Keep it in gear for safety, and when the coast is absolutely free of possible hazards drop it in neutral if you're planning on camping for a minute.

Try removing two opposite springs and keep only a total of 4 on the clutch. I've noticed more guys doing this for an easy pull quick fix. Instant 33% reduction?

I did this plus the aftermarket slave for ultimate shorty lever butter clutch action

Are there any possible problems that can arise from doing this? Sounds like a great idea though. Thanks.

Motowheels has a new batch of polished stainless steel springs that are the same specs as the OEM springs. Check wityh nick@motowheels.com they should be in next week.

on previous (non-dry clutch japanese bike) bikes that I've owned, lighter springs or removing springs resulted in clutch slippage. I wouldn't do it. The clutch pull isn't that heavy and it isn't worth the risk.

Good to hear. So now the question is what do I do with the empty spring holes? Should I put the allen screws in without the springs to keep crud from building up in the threads?
