Hey Guys wassup? Anyone know what is the Smallest # of teeth you can get on a Volcano SV clutchbell. The stock one I have is 16 tooth. I want one with Less teeth so I can lower the Gear Ratio without changing to smaller Diameter tires.

Thanks for all the previous help. I have another newby question for you guys. The Tsunami I mentioned in earlier posts is working and the Volcanoe is functioning after I replaced the chewed up lines. The problem I have now with the Volcanoe SV is when I run it it bogs down and dies if opened up more than half throtte. I have read and re-read a ton of information on tuning. I assume it would bog and die from being to rich rich, but right now I am pushin a temp of about 250 and leaning it out more may do more damage than good. I am sure somehow I should be adjusting the low speed needle more but I am leery as I dont want to go back to not running. Any ideas? Again will run fine half throttel or less, anymore bogs down and dies. Thanks for all the help? Also where do I get info for the bashing contest mentioned?
Thanks!

richen the high needle a 1/2 turn and see if that helps, your running too lean.

You can get the 13t, but you need the other tranny. I am going to order one as soon as he emails me back. I will let you know how it works if you would like.

I kind of ran into a fence post and shattered my stock chromeed plastic rim. Does anyone make an aluminum rim that would fit the volcano? If not is there a stronger rim available....or I could just not run into fence posts anymore.

You will want to tune the engine starting with the high needle then the low. A good starting point for the VX18 is 2.5 turns out on the high, and flush with the collar on the low.
