there holding up great, no signs of uneven wear or twisting in the CV`s. were I am running I think I may either need a 2 speed or play with the ratio for more top end.

I have this same motor and modded by TRM power, its going into by XB I am just waiting on a few parts. my buddy put the same motor ,built by same person in his XB and its ridiculous. so much torque, break all 4 tires loose

I'm planning to get a bartolone Racing Reed case G320 with a 2mm crank (makes it 34cc). I talked with Chris the other day he said they are testing it and once it is ready, they're gonna put it in peoduction. They need around another 2 months. So if you have an 900$ to spare, this will make a hell of a good upgrade
