ron woods,big k@n filter no box, cp 13.6 piston, and dasa mid cams. We will see how it does. Im guessing 51-52whp. Any other guesses??[/b]
I'm guessing 52…...
Well Driver I talked to Johnny at Motoworks yesterday about DYNO runs /HP/TQ and he brought something to my attention I had forgot. Big HP numbers may be good for drag racers winding out 5th, but MX's need to talk more about TQ in 2-3-4th gear, rarley 5th. We're more concerned about getting out of corners fast and hole shots, etc..He said RAGE gave the fastest quad racer in the world IMO John Natalie Jr a 46 HP DS450 motor last year with lots of tq which I find hard to believe, but Natalie did drop back a good five positions from his Honda years prior to the DS. He was racing with A LOT of injuries last year so don't know. Anyhoo, I'm taking that a 50--56 hp with a lot of low-mid torque can be a mx pro-am or a probike…that’s means lots of RPM at low speeds, over heating, motors burning, rings frying, lol …..faster than a lower revving quad. He said third gear needs a mod since it will fry with a big motor and we thought the 09 had a fast 3rd mid-high.
What are your thoughts? Who the he## runs no box anyway?
