Clutch slipping

All right I'm now a statistic.

new leftover '07 with 40,000 miles, dobeck TFI, Roadhouse exhaust, coasters.

About two weeks ago I changed my spark plugs, as a matter of fact just before I visited MAC, and I thought I had an issue with my work. It felt like there was a lag in acceleration. So I tweaked my TFI again and after a few runs along with a little different settings felt that the issue was a dead one.

Anyway a ride up to NH, back and a few other daily rides and all seemed well. But yesterday I decided to crack the throttle while going through the gears and I felt that lag in acceleration only this time I noticed my tach as it jumped about 600 rpm's before it leveled back off when it grabbed completely.

Went to gadget's site, looked up past postings and instead of going mean streak spring I just ordered the MT-25 barnet clutch spring. I also contacted Bob about getting some judges washers.

Now I have a question. In gadget's site it says the judges washers will make your wheel lock up but if that as well as a barnett mt-25 clutch spring, am I going to far?

Any first hand knowledge is good.............
