Weird noise?

[MacRacer1]

Alright so I have a 421 drag banshee, race port, oofs, running on 110. It's estimated at 95 hp, so recently wen going up hill and accelerating really hard it feels like the chain is slipping? But it has new chain and sprocket so I was thinking maybe the tranny? But it does this in every gear, so I'm not sure if I need billet gears or something? Any help is appreciated.

Chain might be loose or splines on the axle might have stripped. Check that first before you condemn the transmission and it turned out it was that little part

[mike0chek]

sounds like the clutch could be slipping, is it stock still?

Sprocket hub or axle splines maybe something inside the clutch warped.

Lock up clutch?

[MacRacer1]

No lock up clutch, i forgot to mention that the axle nut thing has been coming loose and there has been a space between the axle buy when I tighten it the space gets smaller. I have to pretty much tighten it daily.

[gwinnraptor]

my guess is the clutch is slipping, ive had this happen before on different bikes and it felt exactly as you described it.

[ATVridinMaNiAc]

Theres a certain way your supposed to tighten those axle nuts if you have two of them.

[theshee]

A 95hp bike needs a lock up, I'd say your clutch is slipping.

So who makes a good lockup clutch? What exactly does the lockup clutch do? Haha

Locks up the clutch, lol
