Stop That Slipping Clutch

[icebite1]

Opened up 2 other bikes to day , around 9,000 and 12,000 miles, both with stock clutch setup, Found no crud build up behind either clutch spring, were both basically clean.So I have to assume all the stuff, (metal dust,) in the TG was from the VPC

Mr wizard or VT, I just bought a clutch wiz, and am reading about the aim. Will it work with the clutch wiz., or is the clutch wiz part of the mod? Thanks...

The AIM VPC won't work with the Clutch Wiz, the CW takes the place of the VPC.

ultra boy, I have a 2007 flhtc , converted to trike with a stock 96" motor. just had my clutch replaced at HD dealer about a month ago. I am not sure what they installed but it seems to be working fine but I would like to be sure down the road that it will not slip or worse. I am planning on changing my tranny sprocket to a 30 tooth and I am not sure that will make a difference as to which vpc I should install. please advise and I will order one from you guys right away.. thanks a lot Dan

Switch your spring to the 480 lb AIM and Clutchwiz cheaper and have a much easier clutch pull. You can read more about the Clutchwiz here if oyu haven't already.

msocko3, if I just replace the spring for now would that prevent any chances of clutch slipping until I can get back home to Fl. in about 6 weeks from now? I just had a clutch replaced by a HD dealer in Pa. but I do not know if it was a heavier clutch than stock or what and also don't know what size spring they put in, I do know they replaced it with a Harley clutch. I don't have any problems with it now and it seems fine but I like the idea of no slippage or burning out another clutch while I ride it up here in Pa. in the mountains. what do you think?

If you put just the spring on your won't have any problems, only thing is you may not like the clutch pull as it will be quite a bit harder than stock.

I didn't understand how you put 20% pressure on clutch in traffic, anyway most of us face this problem but i didn't find any solution for this slipping.

I went to Amazon to get mine.

Trying to avoid Amazon just so I might be able to avoid paying the 7% sales tax. Price on there at $155.40 with free shipping is pretty good.
