Carl's cycle 900
- Thread starter assault11
- Start date
Seeing as the viable options for those who want a 900 BB have been cut in half, why don't you tell us how your 700 miles have been? I'm sure others would like to know also.

What weights are you running? What elevation

And you hold rpm? I'm running 66g with the 60-40 helix 6-8k but I'm not holding rpm. Maybe when I fix the fuel line it will be better. I'm also running a 3 inch track. We have 2 stock pros running the same clutching as me but on the steeper helix angle 62/42 so that's why I don't think mines running right. I ran 64s last year with the stock motor
Wow, altitude really steals power!
I have mye engine set up with the equivalent of an SLP stage 3 kit with carlscycles 60.42 helix and recommended springs and my sled rips and holds 8200rpm consistently with 76g mtx weights (the same as 72g polaris series 10).
This is at sealevel.
But, I guess the 900 would be insane at my alt...but unfortunately they have not made any maps for this alt.

Im not so sure that the cylinders are the same. Is the carls a long rod motor too? The cylinders would need to be slightly taller on the base for the long rod, no?

Yes different jugs. Not even close to the same
Sounds like the same issue as PAR with the slp pipe. Has it always dropped RPM from the start or is this a new thing?
Glassman, I was kind of hoping I could read about Carl's 900. I could give a flying fart about how you got f#@&ed by someone else.
Seriously I don't care.
If you have a motor from Carl's, yes please comment.
Don't pull a thread that you started cuz you reached an "agreement", then start "questioning" another motor.

^^^^^ whoa. Think you need to relax.
Look at Glassmans question. He was asking a diagnostic question regarding RPM drop on a Carl's 900. Whether the rpm drop was always there or a new thing.
That, to me, seems pertinent.

Yes Sir, You are correct. I do appologize to you Glassman. I too await the answer.
Why wouldnt you use the clutching Carls Cycle tells you to??
They have so much time on these and they have the mapping to the clutching done and dialed in perfect! These motors do run great, turn key operations just by all the components they suggest and it will run spot on like all there combinations do. I wouldnt buy any other brand when they built these motors they spent over a full season testing, building, changing, testing until it was spot on before releasing it to the public.
If you buy the full kit including clutching I dont care what track you have they have the set up for you.
It makes no sense to me why try to out due what they have spent tons of time figuring out and not just buy something completely done. That is the great thing with Carls cycles stuff
