no idea how you get urs that high, mine cuts out before then and would send you over the bars. What clicker are you on ?

 

[twohillsboys]

I'm set at #1 click, dealer say it is a mountain machine and it is set for the mountains. He also said it would loosen up a bit. Went over the bars once.

I would have left the spring alone and added 1.5g to the pins.

I was going to add the weights in the pins but the dealer told me to do the spring. "Thanks Neil

Had the same problem at the start with hot clutches and blown belt. Ended up shimming the secondary over 1.5mm and adjusting the alignment even though the dealer said it was in spec. Changed to a 130/350 spring in the primary and set pin weight to 15.5 grams and geared down to 19/49. Now running clicker #3 8000 rpm all day long.
