Don't know about anyone else but I've riden the hell out of my clutch. I was fighting miles and miles of almost to full on airbox submerging trails a couple weekends ago and relied too much on the clutch in the real deep stuff. They certainly don't make any upgrades for it, I'm wondering if anyone has found some stronger springs or stronger clutch discs that are the same size? I know you don't want anything crazy strong with such a low HP engine, but there has to be something in the 250/300 relm that could prove to be a better choice. I would think there are some springs out there the same size with just a stronger rate. I plan to start researching it and hopefully come up with something. Never messed with the clutch on a dirt machine before because I've honestly never fried one. Guess this is getting my feet wet!
Have they brought the XR400 back yet?

haven't seen any with stiffer springs. the honda kits are very good though. it's what i use in my 450r and 450x if i don't go with Hinson.

Thanks man! Pretty awesome to see an owner of a site so active and knowledgable!
I was pretty much constantly on that thing for close to 40 miles lol so I know its owner abuse, just thought if there was something out there to make it a little more stout, it would be a plus.

that would be awesome! I'll keep my eyes peeled. When I do replace the clutch, I plan on taking those measurements and searching around, so I'll let you know what I find.
