......this was what was wrong with mine
![]() As you can see 2 out of 6 of the springs had broken, these were barnett springs, might send them an e-mail cause there no more than a year old BTW you won't loose any engine oil from taking the clutch cover off while the bikes on the side stand and be aware of the big o ring, i used some Dow Corning auto silicone rubber sealant to stick the o ring back in |

Got to say this again:
You don't need stronger springs in an SV clutch. Ever. If the clutch is slipping then there's something wrong, the standard clutch can easily handle all the torque that an SV makes. Whatever plates you use the SV clutch doesn't require more clamping pressure, stronger springs just make the clutch heavier for no benefit.

Well you can't say fairer than that. Although it's a hassle and shouldn't have happened. Hope the springs broke "clean" and there are no particles floating about in the oil. Maybe an oil change?
