Thack82 Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Like several people have said, there has been builders graft larger intakes onto the 521 and no advantage was given. Calvin made that claim himself. His exact words were "the cub intake starts choking the Super Cub once you reach 521cc and start approaching 120hp mark." Everybody gets pissy and accuses me of name dropping when I say exactly who I received information from but I don't know of any other way around it at this point. Cam at Redline, Jeff at FAST, and Nate at Kan Powersport's all said something along those likes when I talked to them about building a 10 mil back in 2014. Are you sure the bigger intakes were grafted on a Super Cub or Super Serval that was 521cc or bigger? and who was the builder that grafted the CR250 Intakes on the cylinders. I know you and JT are fans of the 521cc Super Cub/Serval and you think the 535cc Cheetahs are junk, you've made that clear in more than one of your post and that's fine. To each their own, but you can't base every 10 mil Cheetah off the ones that performed poorly in the past (and most of those were smaller displacement engines). When I got with a builder and decided to build a Cheetah we both put the time and the thought into what needed to be done to make the motor perform at its full potential and what caused others to fail at doing it in the past.

Thack82 Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 This has been gone over before. There is not a problem. Yet you dont understand that I guess Calvin and the other big name builders didn't understand what you think you know either then. I don't think you understand...... You told me the Cheetah Intakes were old and out dated because Honda designed them in the 80's for the CR250, but the Cub Intakes weren't....... How do you figure that? The Banshee, the RZ-350, the RD-350, and the Cub Cylinders all use the same intake design that Yamaha came up with in the early 70's when they engineered the motor for the RD-350 Street Bike so it's safe to say if the Cheetah Intake Design is outdated then the Super Cub Intake Design is ANCIENT!

U prob should get info on who I am and the small amount I know about nothing Please tell me you joking!?! You didn't just say "my post makes cents." Lol and I thought my spelling and grammar was shit! I hate to break it to you JT but nothing you've posted makes sense (or cents) as you would say! Your intake statement doesn't make anymore SENSE than the statement you made about you're stock unmodified Banshee Frame that weiged 46lbs when every other frame that came out from 1990-2010 weighed somewhere between 51 and 54 pounds. I don't know if your really that dumb and low level or if your just messing with me trolling? For your sake I hope your just trolling!
