So I have my MX Bonanza up and running with a 6 horsepower Briggs & Stratton.
This is going to sound odd but it almost seems too fast as in it doesn't want to cruise at slow speeds whatsoever. I'm looking at the gear ratio here and it looks like I have a 40 on the back in about a 9 on the front with a one-to-one off the drive on the jackshaft. It's got eight inch wheels and tires. I'm thinking this should have a much much bigger rear sprocket? I mean when it gets going I can't even get it up to full blast before it gets too scary and when I want to go slow it just chugs along at way too fast of a speed... Almost seeming to give me low speed performance problems?..
Any help or experience that anybody has would sure be appreciated. Thank you..
