About parts of the secondary clutch:
Without any resistance, you would slam open the clutch up all the way each time you revved the gas.
That’s 0-100 with no control, which is gonna make for some rough riding.
To compensate for this, a powerful spring holds the primary clutch open.
It pushes back against the clutch side sheave.
This keeps the shifting of the sheaves and weights to a controlled rate.
The sheaves are drawn together by a powerful “secondary spring,” which is responsible for keeping a consistent grip on the belt regardless of acceleration.
The rating of this spring is also key to proper shifting, as it adds or resists pressure to prevent belt damage or slippage.
The mobile outer sheave is attached to the rest of the assembly by a cam/helix.
This part’s major function is to keep belt squeeze proportional to vehicle load and to resist upshift.
Rollers and bushings are attached to a component that compresses the second spring.
These resist the movement of the helix’s angled portion.
