Dang, maybe I should have run the Kevlars longer? I did put 1,400+ miles on them...
Oh, as far as synthetic oil, Rotella T6 and I believe, the standard T are JASO rated oils, FWIW. I do know a lot of people will not run synth in wet clutches.
So I found the package from my Barnett springs, 501-25-06043. Different from either posted above. Per Barnett's website, I have the correct spring for the 2012 KLX250S, is the other number or the KTM spec spring stronger or longer? Am I missing something?

But I was looking around in my parts bin, and found some atc350x clutch springs. Found atc/trx250r & cr500 springs. Compared them.

I'm running three stock and three EBC clutch springs that are for the KTM 950 adventure (the Barnett 501-40-06017 are for the same bike). I also have the EBC dirt rider clutch kit. It seems to work fine however I'm tempted to try all six of the spring for the KTM 950. The engine/oil needs to be up to operating temperature as well (I'm running 10w40).
