Trike Clutch Need Upgrade?

[Smitty Werben Manjensen]

I have a Road King that I triked. I plan on increasing HP with big bore kit this winter. Although I haven't had any trouble with the current clutch and I don't believe it is slipping, should I do something with the it, and what do you recommend? I am also pulling a tent trailer all over the place.

I rode my 07 Police King converted to a Road Glide with a Champion conversion added 40k miles on a stock clutch. Had to change out the compensator so I did the clutch at the same time. The clutch was in great shape and would not have had to be changed. Total miles when changed was 50k 40 k as a trike. Motor mods True Duals with Screaming Eagle mufflers, Power Commander with Dyno tune, and S & S 510G cams. Dynoed at 100 HP and 105 LBS of torque. The motor is a 103. The engine mods were done when it had about 5k on it. So I would say ride it and not worry.

Gorilla, thanks for the information. I will rest easier now!

You might want to put in a heavier clutch spring and add the clutch wiz from Dennis.

I have an EZ clutch. Is it the same thing?

No, it isn't the same. Here are a couple of links that will help you find out about the ClutchWiz:
