I would set it reasonably loose, then test it. This way you won't cause any serious damage to the drivetrain. I set it so that it slips noticeably for a metre. If you run the slipper too tight, the wheels will spin on the surface, and it takes a while to put the power down. Think of the slipper clutch as traction control off a start. But it's all down to preference.


Julius.
Good advice there Julius
