Not open for further replies.
Why don't we change this thread to a "poll"...........who all would like to have OT banned from the snowest forums ? I cann't remember ever reading anything as idiotic and childish as what he has posted to this thread.

This is what happens when Stupid Useless Misleading Threads Are Started, All the trash talkers come and post BS in order to flock there feathers.

FYI im not the idiotic and childish person who posted this misleading thread.

DJ, thanks for starting this thread. Good information and illustrations. A picture is worth a thousand words. Also no matter how much things change some things will always remain the same.
 
Good thing I have that idiot OT on ignore or Id have to reply to his brain dead posts. The ignore button is GOLD I tells ya:D
Anyone who thinks the p spring actuallt squeezes the belt.... well that pretty much tells you the elevator is stuck at the bottom , much like his sled , the one he gets others to wrench on cuz he cant figure the difference between socket set and leggo set.
 
Ridgeguy, Guys like DJ and BJ for the past 5 years have tried and tried to mislead people into believing the TRA ramp do not move. They've tried and tried and tried to dis-credit me as well regarding the movement of the TRA ramps.

This post is nothing more than another example of DJ displaying his lack of credible knowledge on how the TRA's Primary internal parts function.


OT

Well we can make a positive out of this..... It's great that such technical people can sit down and openly discuss subjects which lead to improvements which are good for us all.....

Personally I think each sled needs to be clutched to it's self and it's riders terrain/snow conditions. Only the rider know's what he wants out of the kit and know's what he has to sacrifice in clutching to get it....

As for taking off the primary spring stuff.... Again you guys make me laugh.... Aren't you just runnin you transmission off of the secondary spring..... I think you are only going to see your engagement and backshifting characteristics change.......??? I don't really want to try it on the hill..... But I assume it would work to some degree depending on how stiff the secondary spring is.....

Why don't we take out both springs :face-icon-small-coo J.K.

What about the buttons what kind of heat do they generate ? :face-icon-small-con

Not here to trash talk or run down people with insults! Trying to learn! DJ has brought good info along with good graphics to help those that don't fully understand or haven't had a unit apart.
I know that many have benefited from his assistant and patients for them to achieve the setup they are looking for.
As far as the childish & idiot, you've(OT) thrown/slung the greater portion of useless & petty arguments into this thread and many others.
 
Thanks for the video DJ. Had some questions about the tra and from the video, they all got answered. This is what posts should be like. People sharing good info so everybody can tinker and find what works best for them. As for the know it all(OT), he should be banned from all sites so nobody has to read his stupidity.

Lets give Joe a "big hand" for posting a graphic and explaning a bunch of mis-leading information. Yup this type of info is very useful for those that don't understand or havn't had there unit apart.

Joe can't even answer a simple question LIKE.....what happens to the ramps once you've clicked down from clicker #5 to clicker #1. According to Joe the ramps don't move at all LMAO.

I also would like a video of O.T. demonstrating how the ramps move when the clutch is operating. :D

Did your parents or who ever raised you abuse you O.T.?

Do you lay awake at night in anger looking at the ceiling and curse DJ and TRA theory.......

Do you have nightmares of canadians pointing and laughing at you.

Do you find yourself laying on the floor in agony??? Sobing and saying "If i could only make those dammed ramps move while the clutch spins round and round."

Looks to me like DJ validated his point very nicely with a profesional graphic. lets see what kind of chicken scratches you can put up to validate yours?
 
I have the spring removed from my ignore button and it isn't helping a bit. OT needs to be bannished to a rubber room with images of the "bouncing betty" squeezing the moving ramps with its spring painted on the celing and the music to "Delirious" being played over the intercom.
 
Trash Talk All You Want....The fact still remains that Joe does not know that the TRA Ramps Move.

Lets see if Joe will answer this question........

Joe when the TRA Clickers are clicked down from clicker position #5 to clicker position #3 doo the ramps move ?

How does the posi-track on a Plymouth work? IT JUST DOES! :D

....ot, you said what you said for a long time, and it was "the ramps will move while you ride" <----that was the incorrect statement you made:rolleyes:

yep, remember how that escalated into calling John names and then caps lock on, yelling at John.

hahaha. If that was the case, then could it be that the 413 moves "x" fast.
the 414 ramp moves faster than the 413
the 415 ramp moves faster than the 414

When the engine under revs, that means the ramp is moving too fast.:face-icon-small-ton
 
Me Too !!!

I would like too see ot)s diagram of how a TRA clutch ramps moves while the clutch is spinning??? Thanks Joe, very good post. Dino
 
From Melmaq's garage. An idea I had months ago and Maq ran with it. Great job dewd!

There has been a guy on here who insists the tra ramp moves when the clutch is in operation. Well he's been told 100 times it doesn't and now have nice flash video to show and illustrate - TRA RAMPS DON'T MOVE!!!!

TRA FUNCTION - clicky here

another of Mel's TRA system and function vid
Great flash, made me think how things work in a
TRA easier than ever before. Too bad a good thread like this can get unproductive by comments that are just a waste of time.
 
Yikes... I'm scared to ask a question here.... but I've got one. Thanks for the illustration Joe. What I don't understand from the diagram is where all the force comes from to close the sheave against the belt. I understand it must be centrifugal (yah OT, not centrifical), but what translates the torsional force of the crankshaft? From the illustration it looks like the primary would just spin and nothing would move... I know, it's a basic question. I guess there is a ramp on the shaft too?

Anyways, you guys are crazy for trying to get rid of OT. I still remember one where he thought countersteering didn't make sense. He deserves an award or some kind of special badge. It's like Wack packers on Howard Stern. Keep on rockin' OT!

Joe not only is your "ramp theory" in this thread 100% WRONG but you appear to be suffering from memory lose aka "Hatcher Disease" as well...Big JOHN and I debated that the "Ramps Are Fixed and Don't Move At All".

Joe to confirm your theory explain what occures to the ramps when someone clicks the TRA down from clicker position #5 down to clicker position #4,#3,#2,#1...What do the ramps do Joe ?

A. Ramps move.

B. Ramps do not move.

Joe you seem to be ducking the question, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, hahaha

OT
