Iceman_40 Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Unless you can't touch the ground right or a drag racing you don't want to lower the rear. Everyone is putting a 6mm shim to raise it for faster handling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida, there aren't all that many turns to deal with, so, I'm not worried about draggin' the lowers in turns. The extended swingarm you have......... how much over is it than stock?

blackhawkxx Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 What kind of "cluchless shifter" do you have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jurek Posted July 2, 2006 Author Share Posted July 2, 2006 What kind of "cluchless shifter" do you have? Dale Walker`s Holeshot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhawkxx Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Dale Walker`s Holeshot As I recall, it uses a motor with a cable to pull up the shifter, right? Does it work well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demon Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 I've got a holeshot. It dosen't use any kind of motor and cable. It has a switch that you mount down by the shifter and attaches to the shifter arm with a spring. It is basically an ignition kill that you can set the amount of "down time" to take the pressure off the transmission to shift it. It works good, but my switch went bad and I haven't replaced it.

blackhawkxx Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 It was the Dale Walker Holeshot 3 that I was talking about. http://www.holeshot.com/shifters/ps3.html It looks like a good idea but I would like to know how well it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
