Got a 525sx with a rekluse z-start. Has. 570 bb, cut head, cam and 43mm carb. I have NO experience with rekluse clutch. Rekluse says to tune with tires on. Can anyone get me close? Who has one set up and with what balls and spring. Will go on a dyno with the wheel, but need it close. Thanks

Yes bike pulls really hard good bottom end with good over rev on top compared to stock . In the clutch I went with the heavy spring ,also switched my trans form exc gears to the 6spd mxc trans that really helped also

This helps a bunch. Thank you. Hope to put it together this week and get it on the dyno to dial it in. Can't wait to go ride it. I have a pile of gears in case I need them. Got 13,14,15 for the bike and a 16 for the kit. See what happens. Thanks for the help
Got clutch slipping going on. The first day it hit hard and after 5hrs it started slipping. Any ideas? Was using mobile 0-40 oil.
Check free play I missed it the first time also ,new or old clutch plates have mix an match to get proper clearance ,don't know about your oil never used it I'm using t-6 rotelling 5/40 no issues think that's what recluse recommends good luck
Thinking the Mobil 0-40 is not compatable with wet clutches? I may be wrong? I am a huge Mobil oil fan as my family was a distributor for years. I run Rotella.
That's what I would check also not sure if your oil is motorcycle rated could be the problem
The oil is not good. It ate the fiber off the plates. Also I had some other issues as to setting it up wrong I think. I think I got it now, testing it in the morning.
I would not suggest any other full synthetic besides the rotella.. I find it causes access slipping.
So how did you make out with the clutch hope workin out for you
Fibers were ate off. Went back to factory clutch do to setting the rekluse up wrong. Had some damage to it. New part coming. But still need to ride. Also the rekluse put more power down the way I had it set up. Got stiffer clutch springs in the factory one and it helped.
