I'm light weight rider (150lb), and I have many hills in my area, and found the clutch on Huasheng slipped way too much...
I have reduced gearing to something like 18.7:1,, in order to get over hills better...

But looking at some of those 2 stroke videos with manual clutch, I thought I could try to stretch the springs on my clutch with a torch so it would engage bit earlier, to chase lower end torque..

Then I burnt it, stretched it out like soggy old noodles..

Are those 2 stroke clutch springs on ebay the same with huasheng centrifugal ones?
Or is there anyone here who could sell me a set of springs that would engage earlier?

if you reduced gear ratio your bike would be faster but less pulling power
less teeth but faster
if you raised gear ratio your bike would be slower but have more puller power
more teeth but slower
the hs motors do not make good low end power like a 99cc or larger motor they need to rev up to and past 3500rpm as their topend rpm is around 8000 rpm

best way to ruin a spring is to heat it up takes the temper out of the spring
you prolly need to buy a new clutch

I meant raised gear ratio.. Kit came with 12:1 overall.

Clutch is fine, just the springs.
So back to my original q,, does anyone know if this 4 stroke HS clutch spring is same as those used in pocket bikes?

I saw same clutch designs used for pocket bikes, but they say it's for 49cc 2 strokes...

I wonder if engagement speed is different from 2 to 4 strokes.

Hmmm,
I wonder if he can ship them out to Australia.

I'm guessing these springs are different to those 2 stroke springs? because of lower engagement rpm?
How fast does those 2 strokes rev?
Huasheng does rev quite fast at 8000, but I don't think it'd be fast as 2 strokes out there.

Say, does anyone out there know where I can get a diaphram carb adapter for
an hs142? Dax is out of them for a few weeks.
