Clutch weights for moutain, powder riding?

Hello,
Looking to do a major clutch overhaul, wondering if agressive shift pattern weights for polaris p-85 clutch would be a good adition, im going to do a complete clutch overhaul so im looking for max preformance, agressive is good for trail but is this going to make tuning for mountain riding a pain?
looking for the max, thanks

The normal weights seem to work pretty well for me. Too aggressive and you end up trenching. The weight profile that Polaris uses is already pretty aggressive, I would start there and see if it meets your needs. MTX weights are adjustable by adding or removing rivets in the weight; that may be something you can try, you won't have to buy tons of weights to test... although, if you look around, there are weights that are pretty inexpensive to allow you to do your tuning without breaking the bank..

Ahh thanks for the info, Living in the high sierra im not looking to increase the trenching factor, allthough honestly i suffer very little now.
Who makes/sells the inexpensive weights?
looking at $100 sets of weights on SLP does not interest me

Actually i was just considering heavy hitter ajustable weights from Thunder products, would these be similar to the polaris profile? at least for the price, thats all i need weight wise.
