Title: Review of TPO SS racing springs Post by: Duc Fever on August 06, 2008, 05:31:36 PM Well today I received a set of TPO's Stainless Steel racing springs and installed them along with a new CNC Aluminum pressure plate. All I can say is WOW! I was very pleasantly suprised. The difference is quite noticeable. More solid clutch engagement, no slippage at all even under hard acceleration and high RPM gear changes. SWEET [thumbsup] I am one happy Ducatisti ;D
Got them off ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TPO-RACING-Stainless-Clutch-Springs-Ducati_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ35623QQihZ020QQitemZ300247438539QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TPO-RACING-Stainless-Clutch-Springs-Ducati_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ35623QQihZ020QQitemZ300247438539QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW) Excellent improvement over my rusty stockers.

I paid the same amount for them...

No, if you noticed a significant imporvement, there may be something wrong with your clutch/clutch line because the stock springs are fine. or your springs were worn. Im going to try and pop 2 springs and see if it slips. Title: Re: Review of TPO SS racing springs Post by: Duc Fever on August 08, 2008, 12:36:02 PM Well, I did notice that my old springs were a bit shorter than the TPO's. I had about 6500mi on them. Either way I am enjoying the new feel.
