A freind of mine had a shop install a 151" x 2" track along with 8" drivers of course. The shop didn't provide any clutching or gearing with the new track setup.
Currently the machine is setup with the following:
21/40 gears. (stock)
43 degree helix (stock)
Clutch springs are both stock as far as I can tell, no marks colors etc.
primary weights are the 8CH (35.3 g) with steel and alum rivets installed. (steel inside 3.1 g, alum out .8 g) The drive clutch is the short version. The machine does have PSI triple pipes as the only mod.
The machine ran like a stock MM prior the new track and now has a seriously bad bog. I mean this thing will not get out of its own way. Before I start advising him to throw a bunch of parts into it I was hoping to get some ideas on where to start.
Has anyone installed a long track on thier MM and set it up to run well?
My freind is setting this up for other freinds to ride, primarily boondocking performace. I am certain he is not going to lay down cash for a roller secondary, comet drive clutch, other big mods, etc. He just wants to run decently for others to ride it.
Any help would be appreciatted!!
