Default What clutch

I am in need of a new clutch and look like some input on what one. 2005 FLRHI 95" 93hp have been looking at Barnett's stuff. Also Energy one clutches, would like any input I could get. Scorpian, extra disc, heavier spring?

I have a Barnett in the Night Train and love it. I have a S/E in the Limited, and it's pretty nice too.

I have a barnett scopion on my SG -- going to change it out for a Rivera -- I have a hard time finding neutral and pull is very hard--I put a easy pull on it -- now it's easier to pull but slipping -- took it to the shop -- have to take the easy pull off -- getting the Rivera as soon as I wear this one out.

I have the stock clutch with AIM VPC on my RG works excellent

Have you got the correct springs in that Scorpion?
I love mine but did have to mess with the springs to get the right setup.

Oh hell...I just saw, you have a 131" in it. I have no clue about that motor.
Did you try the Barnett Lockout Plate?

A stock clutch and maybe the SE spring is about all most 95" bikes need.

My stage II 103 makes 92 hp and 106 torque and I get no slip out of the stock clutch with the SE spring installed in it. Pull is a little harder than stock, but not noticeably so. Seems like this setup would be adequate for a 95 inch build like the OP mentions.

I have been playing with various spring combo's when I had all heavy duty springs it worked fine -- but my hand would hurt like hell after riding it

I used a 9 plate clutch with SE spring. Seems to work pretty good and not to hard on my left hand.
