G1 secondary spring upgrade
I have read that the aftermarket red torque spring for the G1 does not let the rear end shift right. Is there another spring that i can get for it? I have seen that there is a white spring for the G2 and up, will this fit the G1? Also i have read about putting in a spacer to help the stock spring, does this work for the secondary spring or just the primary spring? I would like to have some better hill climb torque but can't spend the $260 on a plowman's clutch kit right now. Any advise will be appreciated.

Re: G1 secondary spring upgrade
Put a shim in the secondary clutch. 1/4" to 3/8". A simple piece of plastic pipe will work. The 2 strokes don't respond very well to the stiffer secondary springs. They just need a little more compression but must be able to shift out completely a lot sooner.

So is this worn out or does it have some life left? I replaced the shoes, added a pcv sch80 1/4" spacer, and cleaned it.

It's fine. That's normal wear and tear. I've seen them get so bad that they wear holes through them.
