5mm Billet Crank

[06BaNsHeE]

Im saying I Never see anyone on here with 5mm cubs.But Around here (Miami) most everyone that goes to that shop has a 5mm.Cub or stock cylinders.And they run hard.I wanted to know if anyone on here runs them and if they like them.I guess not tho.

I wanted to know the difference between a 5mm and a 4mm.Like HP numbers.I wouldnt think its a big difference but I keep hearing"If you build a 4mm your stupid".He works magic with 5mm i guess.

I have seen a 5 mill run. The funny thing is I posted in the video section of a test and tune pass and that bike was the one I was running. What exactly are you wanting from your motor? Just a drag motor or somewhat of a trail bike?

[06BaNsHeE]

I trail ride to but I want a Drag Bike.I know "you cant have a drag bike and a trail bike".But I deal with it in the trails.Im going to be running tall gearing like 16/39 or 17/39.

I was talking with my builder and my plans were:

Stock milled head

VF3 reeds

+5mm stroker

+4 timing

16/39 or 17/39

Lots of porting

i think youre very confused.

This is just a suggestion but I have only seen one 5 mill and it is an older bike. You might want to call around and ask some builders what kind of experience they have had with that crank. Or who is the manufacture of those cranks your builder sells? You could call crankworks or twister and ask them.

Its a twister crank.He says he can get me the crank for 1000.But Im going to call him up and talk about a 7mm.Why do you say im confused?For not wanting a 4mm crank?

[Malott 1]

5,7 and 10 are the same price. http://webforce.nwrain.net/founder/twistercrankshaft/

I guess Ill go up to a 7.Ill talk to him.But for sure not a 10.

Ok for stock cylinders use a 4mm and 7mm The cheapest is the 4mm crank can be had for 400 bucks. The next is a 7mm and can be bought from 700-1000 bucks. If you are going to an aftermarket cylinder then its a whole new story. I couldnt see why anyone would buy a 5mm crank for the cost factor. It just does not make sense. I think your builder bumped his head too many times.

nevermind this.Im going to build a big cub.Fuck the sleeper look.Ill paint the cylinders black like I did before.Just gunna save up.
