was chatting to someone the other day about clutches bcause mine slips and they said have you tried putting vespa springs over the lammie ones? just wondered has anyone on here done this and did it work? have now got a set of racing springs to try they are a bit shorter and not as fat but they feel stronger , am running a ts1 with a five plate clutch any input would be great!! cheers :)

Try some MB springs, these are the only ones I use with no problems, do the job and are not super stiff so you hand goes numb after 10 mins.
Best Regards
