Re: Super slow after motor swap???
If you can do it safely take a spin and see if the belt goes to top of primary, if so its working right. Then its just a matter of gearing/engine rpm to make it faster. You can get HS gears, go to larger tires and lift, or mod the engine, or do more than one of those. HS 8:1 gears or 22 tires usually give 8-10mph with no other changes. My yamaha with a cam and rod and other mods did 41mph down the road probably near 6K rpm, now its faster but I have not speed run it due to it getting touchy steering at that speed. For a while it did 38gps with stock cam and rod and 5200 rpm or so and went nice and straight after I did some fine tuning, but over 40 it don't. I need to do my kingpins and stuff but it could be my lift which I made myself long ago. Either way I don't go on road or over 35mph very much, I built it for more power mostly which it has.

Re: Super slow after motor swap???
Also my driven clutch is not closing or openong all the way. The belt sits halfway down the driven clutch at idle

Re: Super slow after motor swap???
one of my good friends has the duro 18, same problem as yours,
in the end, he wound up using a set of 6:1 gears, he also ditched the tank and used an electric fuel pump, he got his header fron VC... " now it's respectable" |
