Looking for reviews on the speedwerx lightweight rotating parts. Has anybody installed their lightened helix, driven spider, drive spider, recoil cup, flywheel etc? Going to install a TKI belt drive and am kicking around the idea of complementing it with their lightweight rotating parts for a solid chuck of rotating weight reduction.

Also, does anybody have info on replacing the primary spider? I can't find anything in the service manual and only found 1 video online of an older clutch. No idea on torque specs or what the nut size is.

I have all that minus the spider, also running the zrp cover, and titanium bolts with there light weight clutch pins.

Also I removed the dampner on the primary and had my clutch balanced.

bdx makes a lightweight brake rotor, only down fall is the brakes are squeaky.

Did you feel a difference?

Here is the torque settings

Thank you! I missed that page

did you notice much of a difference? It seems like a good compliment to go with a belt drive

The spider is torqued to 450 lbs ft unless this is a misprint it was in the manual. I have personally not done a new one but many older ones for sure. The old ones torqued at 150 lbs ft.

If someone gets the lightweight spider from speedwerx I would confirm the torque value for it with them. The OEM steel spider might be able to handle more than the aluminum one without stripping.
