helldriver Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 anybody ever use this kit? what kind of power increases are we looking at here? thanks in advance for the info Quote
kw04 Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 i put the alba 400 stroker in my shee and i think the things rips. just make sure you get bigger carbs because the stok carbs suck with the kit. Quote
tboicelli Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 i suggest you look at either Duncan Racing or Trinity for their stroker. I wouldnt ever trust alba with such an important part of the engine. Quote
locogato11283 Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 id look elsewhere for motor work. alba and trinity are the last places i would ever send anything to. you need a real engine builder... Quote
2strokersteve Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 so if alba and trinity are no good then who is good Im looking at getting some work done to thanks steve Quote

lowriderb Posted January 30, 2006 Report Posted January 30, 2006 like others said, i would go to other places for motor work. youve never heard of trinity or alba winning any major events or anything.. Quote

lowriderb Posted January 30, 2006 Report Posted January 30, 2006 exactly.. years and years ago they may have won something.. but now their site says they have a big tripple that is supposed to be making more power than most anyone elses tripples.. and you dont hear about them running it and winning any kind of events out there towards the peoples republic of california..

Polish Posted January 31, 2006 Report Posted January 31, 2006 like others said, i would go to other places for motor work. youve never heard of trinity or alba winning any major events or anything.. 466316[/snapback] you are obvisioly VERY VERY new to this sport they call ATV and Motocross.... Let me throw out a name .......Dean Sundahl...........a local SO Cal boy who made a name for himself in the Baja 1000...........ummmmmmm.....maybe he won!.....also had a trinity motor......... let me throw out another name.......Marty Hart...........Another local SO Cal boy........ How about Duncan Racing......another SO Cal boy.........AND HAS PROVEN HE CAN WIN IN THE BAJA 1000 AND THE 500........AND THE BARSTOW TO VEGAS........ Wayne Matlock..........Chad Prull..........finished in the top 3 pro class at the last Baja 1000..........a bike built by Alba......... Kory Ellis.........Traci Cecco..........more ATV cross champions..........also Alba built bikes.......... Im tired of enexperience people trying to state facts that arnt true..........Alba Is a great Builder...........And has PROVEN they can win!!!!!!!!! And Cory (the Owner) takes Pride in his employees and work....... Have you been to the Sand Sport Super Show?............I didnt think so!!!!!.........If you do ever go say HI to Alba and there proven winners and there bikes on display........ I have an Alba Built bike..........and it rips..........and people on this site have seen it run..........so as far as your comment goes it is so far false........ Quote
lowriderb Posted January 31, 2006 Report Posted January 31, 2006 im not very very new to the sport, im not into the whole baja event or long distance cross country racing, i dont live in california so i wouldnt have been at any of those events.. i have heard of dean sundahl, only through planetsand.. where he was showing his long travel chassis that he built.. where he never said who did the motor.. before you go saying that im sooo new to things look at my join date.. i usually dont voice my opinions unless i feel that i am saying something that is found to be right..so in that case you havent heard of anyone on a trinity/alba motor in your neck of the dunes that was crowned king of the hill, or the fastest up sand mountain.. anyone lately? there are other builders out there that will give the original poster more bang for his buck than the two named.. and quite possibly there will be different builders that will give him exactly what he's looking for.. theres no need to take your frustrations out on me for voicing my opinions, so if you feel that need speak openly to the general public instead of trying to insult just one person that said the same as others..

Those of you that say Alba sux.......is because they prolly got over on you..........and you let it happen!!! Quote
