M7 Changing to power claw what to do for clutching

sleddude · Jan 28, 2013

I'm going to install a new 2.6 power claw on my M7 and was wondering what to do for clutching? I was going to run the orange/black primary spring with 70g weights and sp green secondary spring with my 44/40 helix. This for Eastern Washington State for 4500 to 7000ft.

I wouldn't change a thing. Give it a try first.

Took the M7 up yesterday with the new 85 duro 2.6 powerclaw, oil pump turned down 3 turns and clutch springs. Wow what a big difference. Has way more torque, feels like I geared it down. Hooks up big time and is a blast to ride. Checked the fuel oil ratio when I was done and its 37:1 and i'll check it a couple more rides. Sled was all stock when I bought it last spring with 1200 miles. I think the clutch springs were original.

i agree, your only going to gain traction and maybe a little more rotating weight, try it how you got it first if your clutching is working good it should be able to compensate for the change in load.

Ride it first, then perhaps a different helix.

Ya rode it Saturday and I'm not changing a thing right now. Very happy with my setup. Maybe go to the 10.4 secondary down the rode. Just posting to let people know what springs and setup works well with the 2.6 85 duro powerclaw on the 06 M7.
