Who has tried Brocks and Schnitz springs?
Right now I am using the Schnitz clutch springs, all 5, and would like to know if maybe they are too stiff compared to Brocks. Maybe I cant control the slippage enough and thats why I have wheelie problems right off the launch. The crowd loves it but it holds the 60ft in the 1.50s for the most part. I weigh 225 suited and could go with 2-3 springs if they will hold me whenever the 30shot is hit. I have one more track day left. Thanks in advance.

Wish we'd thought about that earlier I have the brock springs in my bike. Also have spacers, but I'm not using them at the moment

Go back to stock. I figured out its not the springs that get u good 60s. Its how you let out and roll the throttle. Alot of people (including myself) try to get to aggressive with the 14s. Ive found out if you leave smooth its faster. I did my best 60 just playin. Leaving at 3k.

I picked up 2mph in the 1/8th with Brocks springs, but i weigh almost 265 suited. Took some getting used to again launching but well worth the price, proly not the best for lighter guys, us bigger fella's need a littler more umph of the line.
