    I used to run a Comet Duster on my Cuyuna powered Attex. It seemed to act like yours. It was geared really low until you finally ran it out.

    You may not want to change anything until you get it in the mud. The slow shifting is why I wanted the red spring for my Max IV, to keep it geared lower-. Just riding on the beaten path does not really give you indication how it acts climbing hills or going in the mud.

      Great Point liflod, the majority of our driving needs it to be gear slow. For most of us anyways

        Finally Some of My Sears Sportster Videos!!!

        Hey everyone sorry it has been so long but i do have some videos in action, sorry the quality is a little low they were taken with a cell phone. They progress is to see if it actually floats after the complete rebuild. The one with the donut was pretty cool on dry ground. I have had this thing up to 48 mph on the road(had my 4 wheeler next to me clocking it) which is pretty scary without a steering wheel the first few times. Once it get it going again (next weekend fixing the tranny mounting bolts) i will take some higher quality videos. Hope you enjoy.

          Cool! What mods have you done to it? Bigger engine obviously, mine only does about 25mph. Green paint? They all came orange didn't they? I also didn't see the back seat. Was it removed or just poor quality cell phone video?

            Very cool! It looks like it floated fine and you can't ask for more for a top speed.

              Yeah I am running a 22 hp Kohler twin with green spring in the clutch. Yeah they were all orange but I love the lime green look ( We own a paint and body shop so i can pretty much change it whenever). I still have to make the back seat just haven't got to it yet people ride on the fiberglass back there now. I got the luxury front drivers seat tilt, lumbar adjustment, arm rests i guess since i never ride in the back I keep forgetting how bumpy it actually is without a seat.

                    Excellent work! Very clean machine and seems you have put a lot of work into it. Look forward to seeing in in a video!
                    Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways , cigar in one hand, whiskey in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!!!"
