The 6 spring can be a right pain to set up right. I have one on my B33 which has always worked well. I gave up on my Shooting Star and fitted a 4 spring, much better and lighter in operation. The 4 springs appear to have dropped off the market. My last one I got from Kidderminster Motorcycles for my Shooting Star. My son needed one for his as the 6 spring was a nightmare. He bought one from SRM, not cheap and it is waiting to be fitted. It does look to be a nice bit of kit though.
