YamaRider said:And 75 horse out of a mojave? Yeah, right. I don't see any way in hell you're putting that much out of one of those little things, the crank couldn't handle the power, the clutch couldn't handle the power, the transmission couldn't handle the power, and really I don't see how you'd do it without doubling the displacement and running about the same compression ratio as a diesel. Those things are known for engine problems due to lack of lubrication even in stock form, and they only make about 15 stock on a good day. And could you imagine trying to kick start a 75 horsepower engine with a kick starter geared for a 9:1 compression 250? You'd break your ankle every time it kicked back. ****, even kick starting a stock tuned 350 can make you walk with a limp if it kicks back at you.
It would be a hell of a lot smarter to build a warrior to the maximum, it's a heavier engine, but that's because everything on it is overbuilt, so it can take all the forces that get put on it it.
You could also put it on the bottle... a little sneaky pete wet system wouldn't be too awful expensive but would give it a nice kick in the pants when you need it.
Check it out for your self. I didn't believe it either. http://www.cycleworksracing.net/mojave.htm My brother contacte dthe guy that works there and he said so himself he got 74horses outta one.
