Ulmers Kit. I like it, but needs to be dialed in. Adjustments are easy enough, its the sled that is tough to dial in.

Do you know what type of weights these are. Bought from bender racing and would not say much I'm assuming that's why the blue paint is on it. If it's a good kit it must have been set up pretty bad runs way better stock with just different spring added.

They are dalton Weights and helix not sure about the springs.

Thank you

Ulmers are SuperTips. I am running Magnaforce weights. So easy to adjust. Either will work. As will stock weights as evidenced by Excell setup. Its all in the fine tuning.

Funny thing is I have the same sled and My kit came with an H helix, and yours was a K .

WTF?

When did you receive your kit? Mine was early before the season started. Last setup I ran was 1T+2w heel and no other weight. H helix with red spring at 6-2. Right now I'm back to this but I went down to a 6-1 wrap to try that.

I had a really good setup with the pink spring that we worked up at Mr Sled's that I may return to depending what I find.

I got mine around December, same machine, only mod was MRBP race can. Same set up t and two in the heel and one in the tip. Red spring at 6-2. Never tried it, went with 4 in the heel and three in the tip like cannondales before mods and was blowing through the rev limiter, so now have four in the heel and five in the tip, won't get past 8900 on the top end and hits the rev limiter on take off, but low miles and feels stronger every ride. Next year will be better for testing I hope, and really liked the low end hit of the red at 6-2, just a really bad year for snow, and time off work when there was some.
And yes I was a little freaked when I noticed your kit was a different helix.

I know I mentioned this in a couple posts in this thread but once again, came across yet another clutch setup that had the bad casting flash issue. Secondary clutch would not move through it's entire shift. Was binding up cause the towers were rubbing on casting flash.

This is the 2nd set I have seen from the 2015 Vipers.

If you take your secondary clutch apart, it's rough/sharp nibs on the casting parting line inside the windows where the towers fit through.

Hi Nos-Pro,

I am also having problems with Top speed on my '15 RTX LE (White/Blue) with MPI Turbo, Ulmers Clutch Kit, OSP adjuster. It Rockets to 90 MPH but then it seems to hit a brick wall. It looks like its using all of the primary. I've changed the gearing to 24/50 and it seems it didn't make a difference. How exactly do I go about checking my secondary like you did for Weasel? Any info will be greatly appreciated.

Here are 2 videos I posted because of the casting issues I found. This could be part of your problem...but I am very familiar with members not being able to get past 90mph with mentioned clutch kit you have....
