Whats everyone running for adjustable weights in the new style clutch. Will previous team design weights work or does it have to be specific to the 18. I've always liked Cutlers adjustable arms and would to use those if possible. Any spring options anyone is liking?






Sounds like a 45 degree helix is a good option for around 10000'. Im just trying to gather some info before I buy a lot parts I don't need. Thanks

You may want to check out MDS weights, they are claiming 8 hp increase to the track. If this is true or even close to being accurate its a no brainer. 8 hp to the track is a huge gain. Has anyone tried these yet?

We are shipping MDS daily. The 2018 clutch has a much different weight to roller relationship. The 2016+ weights will work, that is what Arctic Cat is using. Big gains on the bottom and mid to be had here.

Cutlers work great and are by far the easiest and best performing weights on the market in my opinion. Plenty of MDS fans out there but I could never get the consistent performance from them as I can with Cutlers.

Do you guys have a turbo setup? And how different are your setups for a 16 with 18 clutches compared to an 18?

I'm leaning towards the Cutlers. Always had good luck with them in the past and they are easily adjustable. Any recommendations on a primary spring? 45 Helix?

If your going with Cutler weights why not get the spring they recommend.
