-   -   Three Variator Weights? (http://www.scootdawg.net/showthread.php?t=53304)

Typically, I run the rear tire about 10% off of the max. Then the front tire just a few lighter. That's how I have ran all my bikes, from bicycles to Honda shadows.

I'll keep that in mind. I'll probably inflate my rear tire to 43 then and leave my front tire at 40 in that case.

Right after I'm done testing out the 9g weights as I don't want another variable in testing my speeds 'cause otherwise I won't be able to convert the weights into percentages and whatnot.

Of course. For proper results, you need to have the least amount of variables for the test course, when focusing on one particular.
Otherwise you would have something with to many output configs.
Such as : (A^x)+({B^y}+C^z) =/~ [N] Where N does not equal Zero.
But, who cares about that.. lol xD

At the moment, do you have an idea of when your going to be proceeding with the BBK?

Haha, totally. Logic just makes sense sometimes xD

I plan on ordering the bbk some time this weekend and installing it as soon as it arrives. I'm also thinking about doing the whole thing over some kind of live broadcast site if I can find one. Otherwise I'll just record my process and probably upload it to youtube. It'll be my first bbk so I'm hoping to have some recording of me doing it so that maybe somebody else can pinpoint a mistake if I make any.

I finished testing my 9g weights. All that's left are my stock 6g weights, but those are hardly worth testing, except to compare to the superior dr. pulley weights.

The funny thing about Logic, is that SOMETIMES its just Logical.
lmao My SSG used to say that.
I would most definitely record it.
Are your 6g weights rollers?
A while back, I had mixed rollers and sliders in the same varo. I did it for laughs, and someone said not to.. Anyway, it turned out pretty great.
If you have the time, you should try it.
Three 6g roller weights, altering between three 4g slider weights.
Its a whole different feeling.

Here is a thread with the link of how it went.
I never did finish the rest of what I wanted to do, simply because of a personal emergency, and fundings for it.
This hobby can get expensive. -_-

That's pretty cool, Techie, I tried doing this once, but it was 9g sliders with 6.5g rollers and it wasn't that great. It had the sluggish acceleration of the 9g but the takeoff of the 6.5g.

Right now I tried the 4g with the 6.5g and it was pretty nice. Very, very smooth acceleration. My GPS said I was going a whopping 74mph, haha. Obviously my gps app is buggy.

Uphill was 33mph, downhill was a nice 48mph, and flat was around 40mph
