I am sure it's been beat to death. But looking for some experience. I would like to clutch my 17 mtn cat 153. I like the soft engagement and would like to keep that part but seems lacking. Mostly looking at bdx and bikeman kits. Any experience with either would be appreciated. Looking for saft engagement, and responsive back shift for tree riding and a little climbing. Ride 3000'-7500'. Was also recommended that I gear it up. Is this helpful on the mtn cat with the 8 tooth drivers? Sled has ssi y-pipe, jaws can, sensor relocate. In the future will do rage cages and go from there for now.

What helix and secondary spring are you running with the mds weights? Or just the weights with stock setup?

Stock 14 secondary.
Polaris 120-340 in the primary (SLP black red)
I think i had 8grams in the weights to get the rpm down to 8100-8200.
I like the clutching better loading the tip

Knifedge do you have 8 tooth drivers? And thanks all. Very appreciated. The weights look really nice and adjustable.
