Ruko Posted September 6, 2009 Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 Cheetahs have power valves which give you lots of bottom end power. In doing so you kinda lose the big power band hit of a 2 stroke which makes it a little less exciting to ride. They also cost a little more. Cubs are the same design just without the power valves and they use the smaller Banshee intakes and reeds. The intakes and reeds don't really make much difference unless you're building a really big motor. The Cubs are cheaper because you can reuse your intakes, reeds and head if you have already upgraded them. They also make just as much peak power as Cheetahs. So if you want great low end power and don't mind spending extra to get it, go with the Cheetahs. If you already have aftermarket reeds, intakes and a head, and you like the hit of the power band then go with Cubs. Either one of the same displacement will make the same peak horsepower.
