Hey all, so I'm traveling now and can't ride until I get back home on Friday and I'm getting a little bored and was just wondering???
Is there a hypothetical rule-of-thumb of how much RPM's change when you change the weights or the spring of the driven clutch??? I know that changing the spring hole on the secondary will give roughly 200-500 rpms either way, but this affects backshifting.
Take my set up for example, I'm running a P-85 with a Polaris gold spring and Polaris 10M5 weights - say I wanted to increase my WOT RPM's, I know I should either increase the spring rate or drop grams on the weights. If I wanted to drop RPM's I would need to drop spring rate or increase grams. How much of a change in RPM's would I see if I increased/decreased weights or increased/decreased spring rates??
I'm wondering if there is a rough estimate increase/decrease in RPMs per gram change or shift rate change; like one gram would be about 1000 rpms or something like that.
By the way, Happy Presidents Day...hope those that had the day off got to ride a bit, I know I didn't cause I had to work today.
