I ran "BUBBA" last night about 600 yards in a loose dirt field with my gps in my pocket. My gps does not work real well in this circumstance ( looses contact with satelites ) but best I could tell in the 600 yard run it was just shy of 80 mph. The bike had more but my nerves did not. When I get more comfortable with the bike and the speed I will test it again.

 

Sounds good ,you should get a bit more out of it.Later.

 

More gear, more gear!!!! We need to see at least 85.LOL

 

Hey,

I did have the Bubba Bike up to 81 mph on a 1000ft asphalt drag strip.

Also took 1st and 2nd place trophy's with it also.

I tried not to think about what would happen if I Came off of the bike at
that point.

Which sprokets did you have on it ? Were you running the 20" tires on the rear ?

 

I had the 15-34 gear ratio, and it wasn't done I think. That's why I said to go ahead and put the 34 on the back. It will accelerate faster with that one too.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

It was far from done ,i seen 83mph with 13/34 so there was plenty left.Later.

 

And I've seen 80 with 14/40.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

80 with a 14/40 do you know what rpm you were turning at the time ?

 

I don't know, I didn't have my tach on, I will put it on this weekend and rerun it and let you know. I know I was quite shocked that it would run that fast with the 14/40 gearing. Actually it was 13/40 not 14/40, I put the wrong thing down to begin with.
