Welcome to the Forums.
Speed is one thing, but torque is a whole different animal. Be hard, but doable

Hi
Welcome aboard Pleased to meet you Keeping speed at a constant on an incline is going to take fine tuning of your CVT Roller weights, clutch springs and maybe main gearing will have be be tailored to your specific performance needs Performance clutches and variators can make a difference as well It can be done with some time effort and new parts Take care and ride safely Yours Hank

Wow Thank you y'all this is a sweet forum, Id love to work on my zuma and learn regular small engines like mowers wakers snow blowers ex. So Im sure to learn to fine tune the beast will take some good knowledge. I would start asking the best performance parts to start acquiring that will make her quicker and will be able to be tunable for that nice torque for up hills.
Thanks for all the sweet info that has me just thinking about building Bianca to be torque, I will like to also upgrade the braking sister since after going up hill i how down hill also. Oh and suspension. I hope im not adding to many things on to this introduction. |
