I have the big cheetah and I dont drag race, in fact there isnt even a place to drag race atv in Ohio that I know of.  I ride mine all the time with my buddies on trails and what not, it has so much low end that it makes them perfect for trail riding.  They are not peaky at all like people make them out to be.  They only go as fast as your thumb makes them.  I mean c'mon, they have as much low end as a brand new yfz and the top end pull of a dragster.  Not many stock cylinders can do that because you will lose one or the other.

not even a 35hp banshee has good traction, trying to get perfect traction on any banshee is not easy. Wheel spin is something you will have to live with. unless you get a four stroke, now they have some traction. at least the ones ive rode.

i will have my cub in about a month and all i do is trailride....i figured for the money it was the only way to go and if it doesn't work on trails then i guess i will start drag racing  ;)

That's a valid point. I want to read the review so make sure you post it. The best way to eliminate spin that I've found is to use a big front sprocket. What kind of gearing are you running 1800bigK?

Here is something to think about,  who are the people saying that the cubs are no good for trail riding? What do they make a living doing? If everyone knew how good the cubs were for daily riding, then who would spend 500+ for a port job on stock cylinders when 875 will get them a cub that will waste stock cylinders.

 

can you see where Im going with this yet?

I didn't see this part of your post, I hear ya but my $200 port seriously hauls ass now, it's the torquiest banshee I've ever been on, smooth from idle on up.

everyone i have talked to says with a 4 mil you can gear enough to reduce wheelspin, so i figured i wanted more and i am willing to take the risk. i hope it turns out as good as everyone is making the cubs out to be.
