Default RE: New Tornado: Drive train issue?

Well, I wish I could tell ya I tore it down and found a loose nut or broken gizmo.. Unfortunately, it turns out that Im just a dope.. I guess I wasnt revving the thing up enough to make it move.. I decided to goose the throttle a bit and it decided to move, so it was just me being stupid, not wanting to over rev it before breakin was complete.. I was able to do the 2nd and 3rd tanks at 1/4 throttle, and she ran pretty good. I have it runnin real fat at the moment, so it's sluggish, but I can tell it's gonna scream once it's broken in and tuned up!Doubt very seriously if Im gonna need that 2nd gear.. I'll probably be swapping it for a single speed actually, since most of my playin is gonna be offroad.. Thanks for all thehelp though!It's great having a site like this to get ideas and bounce stuff off of knowledgable people!!Thanksagain,Mick
