Okay, sounds good but I have on 06 and have some slippage in 5th. I am using all sin in all holes. I have heard that would make a difference. But I would like a stronger clutch. So where can I find these SE springs and how easy is it to install?

I'd be more apt to believe your clutch isn't adjusted properly.
The stock clutch should hold fine on these milder builds.

The SE clutch spring is a HD part.
Pick one up at your local HD dealer.
Pop your derby cover off, remove the stock clutch spring, install the SE clutch spring, install derby cover.....that simple.

Sounds to easy for it to be an HD.

25,000 on my 07 RKC. Didn't like the way the clutch felt from day one. Couple weeks back changed out to an SE clutch with spring. I know the initial problem was the spring, but didn't want to mess with clutch for the next 30,000 mi. All the difference in the world.

Thankyou to everyone. Your help and advice is always appreciated. Think I'll ask the dealer about the se spring on my next visit.
