Making power is one thing S&S Cycle is good at. We’ve been doingit for over 50 Years now. But once you have the power, you haveto be able get it to the ground, and that is something we have justgotten involved with in the last few years. Although this is the first effortinto clutch upgrades for the Victory line of motorcycles, we are drawing onour experience in the development of our high performance clutches forlate model Harley-Davidson® big twins and the experience we have gainedfrom our NHRA Pro Stock racing to come up with a cost effective and well…just plain effective solution for the problem of too much power.The new variable pressure clutch plate uses a series of centrifugal weightsaround the outer rim of the pressure plate to put additional pressure onthe clutch pack as the rpm increases. <strong>High</strong> performance engines typicallymake the most torque and horsepower in the higher rpm range, and thatis just where the variable pressure clutch plate comes through with someextra squeeze!Now Available From S&S ® …Variable Pressure Clutch Plate For Victory® Motorcycles!The new S&S® Variable Pressure Clutch Plate uses centrifugal weights to increase the clamping force on the clutch packat high rpm. This photo shows a modified clutch hub with the steel adapter installed. Easy actuation at idle, but highperformance hook-up when it counts!Like all S&S products the variable pressure clutch plate has been thoroughlytested (aka abused) to make sure it will stand up to the worst that the real world has to offer. In addition to the usual dyno testing and street riding, the final test came at thedrag strip, when repeated ¼ mile passes were made on a Victory® Vegas® equipped with a 114” prototype engine kit.With our test riders on the throttle, this was anything but a milk run, and that is where we discovered that the stock clutch hub could not take the extra stress. So in additionto the variable pressure plate we decided to add a clutch hub modification to the package. Stock clutch hubs will be modified, on an individual basis, to install a billet steelinner hub adaptor. That means that you send your clutch hub to S&S, and you will get your own modified hub back. Call your S&S® Customer Support Representative.The new S&S pressure plate fits all 2003 and later Victory bikes equipped with a Freedom® engine regardless of model. It is designed to be used with the stock Victory clutchplates and the stock (green) clutch spring for an easy clutch pull at idle. That makes this a very cost effective upgrade because you can use what you already have.S&S Variable Pressure Clutch Plate for 2003-up Victory Freedom EnginesPressure Plate Force vs. RPM500450Force (lbs.)4003503002502001500 2000 2500 3000 3500 4000 4500 5000 5500 6000Engine RPMThis graph demonstrates how the S&S® Variable Pressure Clutch Plate actually increases pressureon the clutch discs to over 450 pounds as rpm increases. Compare this to the stock clutch, whichmaintains the same 350 pounds of pressure through out the rpm range. The increasing pressurecreated by the S&S pressure plate ensures that the clutch will hold at high rpm, when power andtorque output are the highest.We tested the new pressure plate with repeated ¼ mile drag strip runs in a VictoryVegas® equipped with a prototype 114” engine kit producing 119.6 horsepower and116.2 ft/lb torque. The clutch held up to the pounding and came back for more.
New 114” and 107” Top-End Kits For 2003-Up Victory® Freedom® EnginesS&S® Introduces two new 41⁄8” bore top-end kits for Victory Freedom engines.Depending on the displacement of the original engine, these kits will result in eithera 107” or a 114” engine. Engines with stock 92” or 100” displacement will yield 107”with the stock 102mm stroke crankshaft. Stock 106” engines, or engines with anS&S 106” stroker kit have a 108mm stroke crankshaft, and will end up at 114” whenthe big bore kit is installed.Proven <strong>Performance</strong> ® !Needless to say any part S&S sells has to live up to our reputation, and we can proveit. A quick look at the dyno chart will convince even the most skeptical that the S&S114” is a monster. Compared to the output of stock 100” and 106” engines this ishuge. In the real world, the same 2003 Vegas® equipped with the S&S 114” kit anda prototype S&S variable pressure plate clutch conversion ran the quarter mile in10.981 seconds with a top speed of 120.70 mph.S&S Big Bore Kit 107” and 114”Have your dealer call for spec/build sheet, or S&S/Victory dealer can download the sheetfrom www.ssdealer.com/victory/.
