357 MAGNUM (02 motor build) Reincarnation of #5 The 357 build

[YAMAHAULER]

Seems to be a bit lighter Weston
I have the adjusters all the way in too so eventually I'll need to pop a link off or mod the 1st gen swinger to fit the 2nd gen carrier and I think I wanna drop down to a 37 tooth

Looks great! How many tooth sprocket do you run on the front?

 

[2000]

and what size tires? I have 20" rear tires and a 14 tooth front but im not sure on the rear size. it feels like it tops out too quick and I find my self looking for another gear in 6sth. also I saw that you had a tach. whats the max rpm that I should rev it at?

 

[YAMAHAULER]

Thanks I run a 14 up front and I run 18"-20" and 22" for tires just depends on what trails I'm gonna be riding and if it's dry or muddy determines what size I run
And yes I still try to shift into 7th from time to time Lol

 

[YAMAHAULER]

As for max rev rpm I would keep it under 8,000 if your running a stock cast piston

Ok thanks. Do you think my machine with the mods listed would pull a 15 tooth front?

 

[YAMAHAULER]

with 20" tires on back it should have no problems with a 15 t front

I see where I scratched it when I slipped bending the tabs oh well its gonna get dirty anyways right

holy crap $18 for valve stems? those are SICK but what about just firing off four rounds and making some. where i ride i can find shells all day long. just jb or what have you over another valve stem for much cheaper.

 

[YAMAHAULER]

yeah that's true I'd want 357 shell casings though

 

[CJCaldie]

arent those like an inch long or something though?

 

[jimmyde78]

Ed be careful if they are metal valve stem caps. I've had a set; 2 of em rusted & seized to the valve stem and I had to buy new valve stems. Couldn't get em off; one cracked the head of the stem right off

 

[CJCaldie]

Holy crap never would've thought. I have some walmart specials on mine and those are plastic and rubber inside. Didn't know they came any other way

 

[YAMAHAULER]

I have polished aluminum caps on #5 right now never had any issues

 

[jimmyde78]

Polished aluminum def cool. I bought a set of skulls w red eyes from a truck stop for 8$ & they ended up rusting to the stems
