150+hp on motor


Recommended Posts

What.... You're from Pipestone?

 

Where the fuck are you planning on running a 150hp banshee? These aren't trail motors...... You aren't going to be running one of these on fire roads

I don't ever ride around here. I take trips down to lsok or Pismo.

LOL..

 

150HP motor on race gas cannot be ridden in the dunes reliably.

 

You know how I know? Because I've done it.

 

You will see coolant temps way over 200 degrees after only a few minutes of riding it.

 

What you're trying to do can't be done reliably.

At what point you can't dune due to cooling issues? Is it the DM jugs water jacket design or a combo of other things. I find that interesting.

 

I'm not technically inclined enough to talk about water jacket sizes, but what I do know is that on race gas they get hot as fuck, fast.

 

You're looking at a heat soaked motor after a couple passes on the drag strip.

 

There's no way you're going to be "duning" one.

Too long. 190" long it was too much for trails

 

A baja long travel truck might be great out in the dunes, but it wouldn't be fun the the trails. There is no vehicle on the market that competes with a SXS in versatile.

Guess it depends on the state. We've got plenty of two track trails. And most of our Atv trails aren't wide enough for SxS's here.

Just have Thacker put a Composite T999er Grade Aluminum-unobtanium Specially Modified Radiator and High Performance 6969 CFM AC/DC 47v Hybrid Fan on it. Duh!
