By that you mean take power away? There is some "belt drag" plus the force required to spin the weights on the first pulley so a cvt requires some power to operate, but of course this is not very noticeable. The pocket bike cvt's will work on the titan 4-stroke's and the comet torque-a-verter's I would assume will work on the four strokes as well. The problem with the pocket bike cvt's though is they reverse the direction of the drive sprocket causing mounting issues.I herd that a cvt trans cuts power down on 4 stroke by 15to 20% percent is this true? There are a lot of cvts out for about $70 are they worth looking into they look good
DAF Cars and Truckswiki said:DAF cars had the image of being slow. The company tried to change this image with entries in rallies and races, such as their entry in the London-Sydney Marathon. This led to an increase in sales, but not as much as the management had hoped for. The company also competed with a Formula Three car.
* 1993: A Williams Formula One car was not allowed to race, because it had the Van Doorne's CVT drive. If that car had raced, it could have been more than a full second per lap faster than the competition. As Williams was the leading team already at the time, the F1 management decided to forbid the technology. It would have been the first time a technical development introduced in a road car would be used in a race car, instead of the other way round.
Well, Ron, i just like the looks of the in frame mount; i want to put luggage in the rear i know using a wider crank arm will let you clear the other trannies; how far off the motor does the cvt protrude?Is the cvt's length also a frame issue? and doesn't the cvt eliminate the need for shifting gears?Noped, i believe the hs is the titan, I have 3 of them, 2 mounted. the hf 52cc is a quailty motor, sits lower and has a fuel pump which can be a big asset. cvt is wide and not very suited for in frame. anything can be done, but why? ron
This one is more expensive, around $200 unless you buy 12 and i forgot to ask if it included their jackshaft; Jim Donovan said it should not be used as a fixed drive. So....
