My clutch is slipping, I think, when I geared down from 6 to 5 and not high rpm to pass and got on the throttle it seemed the clutch slipped.

Question, are there better disks, springs or a kit that would be better than going back with stock? Also considering a baker attitude adjuster at the same time.

It's a 14 limited with about 96hp, just looking for some solid advice.

I used the SE spring. Only about $20 or $30. I also had to go back in the primary with Formula plus. The synthetic I had in there caused some slipping.

 

Adjust it first before buying more stuff

 

It's a hydraulic clutch operation, I don't think it's adjustable but will research more.

And I do have synthetic oil in the primary, last time I changed oil I drained the formula and use rl primary oil?

 

Yes, in answer to all of your questions, OP.

I went with the Barnett clutch spring, and as already mentioned, Formula+ helps if you're currently using syn.

The one caveat to simply going to a heavy duty spring (SE and Barnett are both good), while they're cheap, it will increase your clutch pull tension by a solid 30%. Doesn't bother me now, but I can see it being too tough a few years from now. There is a variable pressure clutch plate that is even easier to add than the spring, but you'll be sniffing close to $300 for that. The upside is that it leaves your clutch easy to pull in.

Good luck in sorting it all out.

 

I had some slipping in mine and did exactly this and it cured my issues. The SE spring is cheap and it worked for me.

 

I had a 107 kit installed last year and didn't realize how bad my clutch was slipping. I was like you, dropping from 6th into 5th and when getting on the throttle the rpm's would ramp up but not much increase in bike speed. I tried adjusting the clutch but didn't see much difference. Finally put an AIM VPC lockup kit in a few weeks ago and pulled the front wheel off the ground on my first roll out. No more clutch slip for me and I'm grinning from ear to ear now!

 

Hydraulic or not, they still adjust at the basket right?

 

No...

 

I appreciate the input guys, Ok I call my local Harley parts and the heavy duty spring says it's not for thr 14s up. But the parts looked up the spring that in the 14s and it's the same number as 98-13 wtf.

And like SafetyMan stated the clutch is not adjustable.

The HD spring number is 37951-90, they have it in stock, I need to know if this spring will fit the 14s?

Like I said I appreciate the info and may have to use an after market clutch, damn there high$, but would like to try the heavy duty spring first if I can find out if it will work in the 14s?
