  1. I have a friend with a dyno that, solely from the dyno info he logged; was able to decide what gearing and what the best possible e.t. a particular 7 mil Cub (another friend's) would run. He also said it would be difficult to get it leave without bogging. At the track, the best e.t. was exactly what he predicted (3.84), and it did bog several times. He also has him running low gears (14/42) on his 73ish r/o 14 extremes. That motor has to rev to the moon to reach the 77+ mph he was running. That may have been pure coincidence. I have little experience with dynos, just thought I'd add this tidbit. I don't really have an opinion on this issue other than, YES definitely more hp does NOT always mean faster et's. WHich I think we can all agree on. I've been smoked many times in my Cheetahs by smaller bikes when my setup was wrong. Oh yeah.. Back to the subject: The biggest baddest Craptor on the planet would have a hard time beating a good running, properly setup 4 mil Cub.
  2. NOT A NOOB. J-Madd acct screwed up.

  3. YOu really need a magnetic drain plug to see how much metal is in the oil. MOst of the time when metal is piled up on the magnet, it's because the clip came off of the idler gear (beside the kick starter gear) and it's been bouncing around inside the clutch cover. The transmission is most likely fine.
