[scrivy]

Yip. Spaz did...

There's a reason I don't read 99% of what happens on this site, it's because my head hurts from too much

Fucking mods should do some work then

The Mods can't fix stupid.

Nice to see you're up with the play there Spyda...read the last page...I posted that the short chain was probably short lived. Bob also made the same comment...nice to see two great minds think alike. I hope I'm proven wrong for Drew and Al's sake...but I can't help thinking they're gunna need that supply of chain to be a constant supply of chain.

I'm gonna make the primary chain from the bike chain that was our old chain.

We'll use the chain pictured as our secondary still though I think.

Don't suppose anyone has a decent 7.2 20 13 slick lying around they don't need? Our chair tyre is a bit...erm...tired.

I think i've got one at home you can have, i'll check tonight

Kornhole Rick got all our old stock, he didnt wear his tyres much at the last meeting. Hed be worth a try if Dave hasnt got one.

[Drew]

Thanks guys. Not the end of the world if we can't find one. Ours just has a slow leaking puncture that can't be fixed.

I'm not so sure I'd go as far as considering the pair of you great minds

When I ran a 250 Superkart approx 80hp and running similar size sprockets but with a slightly longer chain run with an average grade of chain I went through one a meeting, we stepped it up to the top grade Tsubaki and it lasted 4 meetings

Before I built the belt drive set-up for the Matchless it used to eat a primary chain every meeting and they weren't cheap old Renolds chains either. Tsubaki or RK and we replaced them over the weekend of the Classic Festival two day meetings and they were longer than Drews set-up, although his probably won't get as hot as ours did.

Ours also isn't spinning as fast as a crank driven primary. This is the output side of the gearbox remember.

The degradation of the chain is directly linked to the intake.




























The intake of pies!

Cheers bro.

yeah, and that means the torque load is higher....on the bonus side, the lube may stay on longer.....

Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in shit.
