I have been wanting torque converters for a couple of my bikes for quite a while. While searching the OldMiniBikes site, I came across a super deal! They have these torque converters at $69.99 now! I just received mine and they are very nice units! It even came with a 35 and 41 gear in the box...

I was doing a pretrip inspection and noticed something that maybe I hadn't before. I have a little over a quarter inch in and out play in my driven shaft. Is this normal? The bearing spins freely, and there is no side to side movement.

I just installed one on my Baja Warrior and am curious about what can be changed on it. It has a green spring in the driven unit stock, and it's set in the center hole. What is the benefit (if any) to moving from the center hole to another one, or even switching out the green spring for a...

I bought a after market clutch convert kit from Amazon. Couldn't beat the price. Coming back to haunt me now. So I'm browsing Amazon and I see original comet cvt kits. I thought comet was no longer in business. And they have them in stock. They also have a Stens driver pulley. That pulleys belt...

ok so i havent posted in a while. Ive been waiting for some kind of feedback on the "other" torque converters since comet is no more and is as expensive as gold these days. I also wouldnt feel right buying the comet because i will be really using/abusing it and i know they arent being made...

It's been a long time since I was last on the site. When I stopped building the news was comet was going to quit making Torque converters. Does anyone know if this was just rummor? Thanks.....vince
