Default Clutch upgrade

Looking to upgrade my clutch on my 2014 dyna. I'm a stunt rider which means lots rolling burnouts, wheelies, and a lot of hear/abuse to my clutch. Been searching around and found the Kevlar or carbon fiber extra clutch plates from barnetts which sounds like a good choice but not sure what to do about clutch spring, go back with stock? Screaming eagle VPC? I've heard the barnetts heavy duty clutch springs are way too stiff. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance

id go with the kevlar extra clutch kit with heavy duty springs but yes I have heard they're way to stiff. Just my 2 cents

The stiffness can be minimized by installing a Burly "EZ boy" clutch device. It reduces clutch effort by "40%." according to Burly. Seems about right.

Good luck with your stunting.

Can you do a stoppie?

this is not gospel and i have no idea what i'm doing....

now that i have your total confidence...

i'm going with the barnett kevar +1 kit, a screamin eagle heavy duty clutch diaphram spring, mulling over the various VPCs.

Seem that all of them are coming from the developer, AIM, and being rebranded by other companies. The s&s VPC is an AIM, the harley one is the same story... rebranded AIM. AIM, themselves, have a newer low profile series of VPCs. I'm looking at oem vp95lt vs the se vs the s&s vs best deal.

Decisions came from:
