You need to open up your old clutch and take the ramps and pins holding the rollers in the arms out and install them in you new clutch. It sounds like your pinweight is too high in the new clutch and you need a couple grams lighter weight, we can assume your old clutch has the correct weight for your altitude

The ramps are important for the kind of riding your doing and "should" be selected to work with your helix and secondary spring setup. There is a good chance your ramps are the same , the three digit number on the side tells you the profile. If they are the same , no need to change them.

The pins in the rollers are adjustable, you can change the weight of the pin to adjust the peak RPM in you motor.

thanks
ramp #s are the same
will check the pin weights and see how much of a difference.
sounds like i need to go lighter on weight.

Probably has something to do with those stock shocks you are riding with this year, :face-icon-small-win sorry had too. Hope you figure it out soon, the snow is starting to get good, good luck, and thanks.
