i recently purchased a 2007 m8 for my wife, i went out this weekend and ripped around on a buddies field. the clutching has 68's on it right now, the clutching engages at 3500-4000rpm.
the problem i am having is when it engages it very snappy, i would like it to be gradual and easy on the neck! and easy on my wife.

Are the weights and clutches dirty and just need cleaning? or is it needing different weights?

my wife will most likely be riding whitecourt, swan hills and edmonton area.
maybe a couple times to the mountains a year.

any info or suggestions would be great.
Thanks, Mike

i forgot to add its a 153 track length and its set up for 6000-8000 ft. from what the chart said.

Change the primary spring to arctic cat gold. It will smoothen out the engagement.

The arctic cat gold is the way to go. Engages nice and smooth around 3000rpm, gets rid of the snappy engagement when trying to reverse too.
