    83 750E clutch question

    I'm sure someone here can help.
    I run an 81 750E with an 83 motor, old V&H pro sidewinder, cams (I'm unsure exactly) 31mm CR Specials, 816 Wiseco kit and the head has been ported and milled. Dyna S and Accel coils. No charging sys. either. It's drag only.
    My question is, I have a clutch from the 83 that uses the 4 spring hub and was told it wouldn't slip off the line and would grab too much. I was running the older 6 spring clutch for this reason. I noticed the springs for the 83 clutch were a lot shorter and was wondering if this is what causes the grab issue. I assembled it with 4 of the springs from the 6 spring clutch and it seems I might be on to something here. Would having more spring travel ease the grabbiness the 4 spring hub likes to exhibit? I have no way to test my theory without traveling the almost 3 hrs. to the track. Anyone else ever hear of/do this swap?
