Hello all,
got a kenbar whirlwind ( just like a baja heat mini) , with honda gc160 4.5hp
dont know what i was thinking when i put a 10 tooth front clutch (comet $30) with a 48 tooth rear , tire 14.5" .
my question is the 4.8 to 1 ratio , to small for flat grass and street riding?
takes off kinda slow, but hauls top end wise .Im really happy the way its is.
but the clutch is getting pretty darn hot .
my 6 to 1 go kart (ran it) didnt get hot at all,
should I put a 11 or 12 tooth front sprocket, I have an extra motor 6.5hp , can up the motor .
i would increase the rear sprocket but i would have to lengthen the chain , p ain in the arse . but would prob be best , 54 or 60 tooth.
thx for your input
