aleyesonme Posted October 7, 2013 Report Posted October 7, 2013 Need some input...just found out my trans is shot and in bad shape. A guy round my way says that he will cut me a new trans override 1-4 m5,6 with new forks and drum for 450...is that a good price, bad price or about the norm....? Thanks Quote
m671054 Posted October 7, 2013 Report Posted October 7, 2013 No core? normally you need to send your trans in for that price. ask to see samples of his work first. ive seen alot of cut trans. some look like shit, are horrible to shift,eat forks, wear uneven etc. Quote
SOUTHTHIRTY Posted October 7, 2013 Report Posted October 7, 2013 for that price,, go with a big shop.. Quote

And if i was to see his work i wouldnt know what im looking at. The guy thas putting it in uses his trans in all his bikes and is very well known in my area...so im just going by his word. I talked to tyson racing and they said they could fix it.....but from what i was told its pretty bad Quote
n2otoofast4u Posted October 7, 2013 Report Posted October 7, 2013 Who is this person who cutting it? Who's working on your motor? Where do you live? Quote
aleyesonme Posted October 7, 2013 Author Report Posted October 7, 2013 Who is this person who cutting it? Who's working on your motor? Where do you live? Dont know the guy namw but hes out of wilmington nc.....and the othee guy is an associate of mine that builds hellava bikes.... Quote

RagunCajun Posted October 7, 2013 Report Posted October 7, 2013 Mine was less without core but depends who you go with. I went with some non name guy from here and lucked out and got a great trans. Off topic but you do absolutely need 6 gears? If not, consider a n-down 1-5 duneable. IMO the best combo there is unless you have to have 6 gears. Quote

By having all six cause more problems or something? And im not sure exactly what dunable is ill have to search that Quote
RagunCajun Posted October 7, 2013 Report Posted October 7, 2013 For a drag bike you will be fine with what you will do. Although a trans with m5 and m6 sounds like it could hurt your e/t if you need to use 5 or 6 gears on a pass. Quote

Figured since its offered it would be bettr to have all six.........its better to have and not need than to need and not have Quote
