Are you using the stock stator? Do you have the stock starter in place when you race? Battery?
Just kinda curious about your setup. We were wondering whether you had eliminated those or not...

I use a little starter that was used on one of the factory mx bikes. Maz got it for me when things were being liquidated. Its about half the size of a stock starter. Im told its the only one.
I use the standard yuasa size 9 battery. I could probably use somthing lighter but i like the reliability of the 9.

Can we please see pictures of your one-of-a-kind starter?

This is the best one I have for now. I can get a better one if you want.
I think this is the only "special" cannondale item I have. Cannondale had their own "factory" drag quad that they took to the local dirt drags and they made a special tubular aluminum wheelie bar for it with a go-kart wheel/tire and everything. It was offered to me and I said I didn't want it. I really wish now I would have taken it becasue it might work for me now...it wouldn't have then. If nothing else just to have the collector's piece. Dumb decsision on my part. I might be able to still get it but I'm sure there is a price on it now.

Nice starter!
I've seen that site before, (but never that drag Cannibal) and wondered how it was still open... Who's site was that? Anyone still on the forum?
Speed1B, are you running reangled injectors? As in reangled due to their being Harley injectors?

Awesome find. Thats the bar i was talking about.
I am running re-angled injectors but i wouldnt be if i didnt start out with that head. That head started out as a wwe head that tim re-ported. The bungs dont need to be re-angled for harley injectors.

I thought someone said the reangle would work perfect with Harley injectors because they sprayed straight instead of at an angle...

I said that.Yes it should with some.Winky ones.If they are really straight.WWE ones it wouldnt.I have run them in stock and reangled and honestly could not tell any difference.Definitly not worth trouble of switching heads to confirm on dyno.

Doesn't some jap machine share the same started as us(I thought i remember reading that some where)?
If so there could possibly be a slimmed down version?
Just encase someone is in the market for one
