So I live by the ocean and the open clutch cover with stock springs and salty air just aren't working out so well. The springs are starting to rust. Where can I find stainless springs that aren't going to cost me $30. I really don't think 6 springs should cost that much. Thanks in advance.

$26 from Motowheels:

That's the cheapest I could find. CA-Cycleworks has them for $34 with retainer caps. That's just what they cost.
Thanks guys. I guess I am just cheap.
What you are looking for are called "Flat Edge Compression Springs" (or sometimes referred to as "closed and ground end" instead of "flat edge")
You need to do a couple of measurements -- I'm not going to make it that easy for you. Last time I ordered, they were @$1/ea in low volume quantity in stainless.

Lee Spring requires you order a minimum of 10 to avoid ridiculous handling charges. At about $5 each, that won't save you much! [laugh]
Was just trying to help him, perhaps you can suggest the supplier that sells them for $1 each then?
