same happen to me the first time i changed mine. mined slipped in the upper rpm. i tooke everything back out and made sure all the steels were facing the same way i also had made sure that i had soaked the clutches before hand in oil. i dont know if this willhelp but a few of my steels were tuned opposite the other and that fixed my problem. i am not sure if it will help you but i hope it does

Mike you are right but there is no adjusting needed big guy. Like hot rod say the clucth on the 14 does not need adjusting. Are you still playing with that zx12 clutch. I am i changed the clutches in my 12 last week its twice as bad as the 14 the 14 chnage is so smoothed
