PostPosted: 25 Jul 2009 19:45 
S1 - 25K - The g/box dog drive on 1st was replaced about 5,000 miles ago after a thunderstorm up grade with extra race parts - thanks to Tubbs - and all is wonderful - but I think 1st gear dog is worn again - feels like belt slip.

I am not a burn out wheelie merchant and don't give it big handfuls in 1st.

Is it a case of 'cheese box' - the sporster derived unit isn't up to it presumably :idea:
