bansheecaptain Posted February 11, 2005 Report Posted February 11, 2005 well i dont think this has been asked before , and if so i didnt find any... but anyways..i just want to know how they ride , when you hit the powerband is it smooth like the paul turners or do they hit hard like fmf.. if got a pair of fmf and i like them becuase the powerband hits hard ..my friend gots pual turner and it's all smooth ( no excitment ) ..any info would be cool..thnx Quote
wesw Posted February 11, 2005 Report Posted February 11, 2005 it really depends on what porting you have. when they hit they hit and are smooth Quote
bansheecaptain Posted February 11, 2005 Author Report Posted February 11, 2005 no porting well yet.. well i got .milled head.. vforce.. bored carbs...k&n filter and powerlid....+4 timing...fmf pipes..lightend flywheel Quote
SANDSTAR Posted February 11, 2005 Report Posted February 11, 2005 I was thinking the same question. If the rockets somehow smooth out the hit, I don't want em'. Quote
Banchetta Posted February 11, 2005 Report Posted February 11, 2005 There was no smoothness in the stroker that I rode....It hit like a freight train and pullled hard after...Minkia needed 2 more teeth up front to calm it down!! Quote
locogato11283 Posted February 12, 2005 Report Posted February 12, 2005 the rockets are by no means smooth. when they hit they hit extremely hard and keep pulling hard. they are nothing like the paul turners. why are you so concerned with feeling the hit of the powerband? Quote
gonzoret Posted February 12, 2005 Report Posted February 12, 2005 damm right you could feel the hit . am changing from a 13 to a 14 tooth front sproket to go along with my 22" haulers for prez day. Quote
bansheecaptain Posted February 12, 2005 Author Report Posted February 12, 2005 i wont to know if they hit hard because i want a real ride not a pony ride... i like the excitment when it hits and you have to start hanging on Quote
wesw Posted February 12, 2005 Report Posted February 12, 2005 i like the excitment when it hits and you have to start hanging on thats what i meant, smooth pull you lean back withthe power. damn good pipes Quote
rocketboy Posted February 12, 2005 Report Posted February 12, 2005 ii would call the rockets a violent pull more than id say its a violent hit,because they dont hit then sign off like t5s do,they pull and pull,on pavement you better be hanging on tight around 6000rpm Quote
bansheecaptain Posted February 12, 2005 Author Report Posted February 12, 2005 ya i do alot of open thortle trail riding and i go to the dumes a couple times i want a pipe thats exciting and good all round and been looking into rockets Quote
Minkia38 Posted March 29, 2005 Report Posted March 29, 2005 yeah - they dont smooth anything out, thats for sure! Quote
