That's what I wanted to hearNope, Tried all of Dalton's springs. I have tried every spring, You name the brand.....
This spring was specially designed because twist, wire diameter and sidepressure all needed to be specific.
Will order it tomorrow

I recently ordered one for my Sidewinder which has Ulmer clutching in the primary. I also ordered the 33/35 helix I'm guessing go with a 3-3 wind. I'm debating a muffler and tune but really wondering if this spring will help out my 2011 Apex SE. Has xtx gearing with Ulmers clutching. Also running PC5 and Airbox mod but this sled still gets beat by my buddies 06 RTX. Even on top end. Will this orange spring help the Apex with better all around performance? It sure is frustrating when the RTX is running stock clutching except for a od sheave and 3 degree key what was the original Woodys Yamaha powerup kit for the Apex. Thanks for any help and advice

I just received my orange spring today. I'm going to be putting it in a bone stock Rtx sidewinder. We do no off trail riding, and just the occasional long high stoped run. Question is what wind should I be starting with for 90% trail 10% high speed?

Sidewinder, go with 3-3 on the wind.
This will help RX1's, Apex's, Vectors, Vipers and any other clutch setup that uses the Yamaha pink or white secondary spring. The spring should help with low and mid range, but because this spring won't bind anymore....you should see more top end. **** Because the spring tabs are in a different position on the orange spring from TP, instead of 6-1 or 6-2, you will be 2-3 or 3-3. ****

Ok some times admittedly I jump into things and don't always look things over before pull down. I put my spring in today and after install I have an 1/8th inch play in my secondary on the shaft. But t is tight. Question is that how it was supposed to be?First yamaha I've pulled down.

Yes, if you are currently running the pink or white secondary spring....no matter what setup you have, it should help out.

The play is float on your secondary. This allows the secondary to move with the belt. This is normal

As long as you did the wrap clockwise. I would run it and let buttons wear in. Take a short ride and check buttons and the will most likely be touching.
