No... We bread the "ginger" out centuries ago. The Spaniards (black Irish) were a mixed blessing. Still kept those blue devil eyes tho!

.as to y my rev,takeoff suffers so      If you go stronger on the contra spring w/ all else the same it will take longer to get to your top "gear" . If you add stiffer fly springs they will hold the clutch from locking until higher rpms. You do want stiff clutch springs to begin with. That is the BASE of your tuning. The next step is to deceide if you are reving too high at top end or not high enough. That is controlled Mainly by the rollers. the next bit is to decide if it is taking too long to reach the top gear, and that is adjusted w/ the contra spring. This approach may make it easier to feel what each part is doing. You should be able to take off, and be feeling the power all the way thru to the top if the cvt is set correctly.

Maybe due for the air filter clean?    I'd go w/ that. Check/change your plug too.
