Dirt Squirt clutch spring specs

Post by robbnc »

I'm trying to evaluate the condition of these 96 DS clutch springs and the only spec I can find is in the manual which is for Ace 90. The Ace 90 shows a 6 spring clutch vs a 7 spring clutch on the DS. According to the part numbers the two bikes have different springs. The DS uses #934011 and #934017. Does any know if the service limits are different on these springs? Also if need be does anyone have a source for the outer springs? Hodaka Parts has the inner springs but looks like they're out of stock on the outer springs. Thanks

The Tech Spec sheets list the clutch spring lengths for each model. These can be found in the library section at Hodaka-parts.com. What is interesting is that even though the 96 Dirt Squirt uses the 93 Super Rat springs, the tech specs list differing lengths! Should get you in the ballpark I guess.
93 Super Rat Inner .67" (17.67mm) Outer .79" (20.79mm)
96 Dirt Squirt Inner 17.65mm Outer 17.27mm

Thanks! I didn't know the tech sheets were there! That outer 20mm spec is the one that had me worried, but it obviously doesn't apply.
