Muzzy Lockup, some Info... Well here is some info for everyone!! I took my clutch apart(stock motor)last night. Well I have had 26 (hard)drag strip passes, and then about 600-700 easy street miles on it and usually Im cleaning steel's and changing a few fibers out by now, and I cant believe this thing! My clutch looks almost brand new!!! only 1 steel is really blue at all and then I have 2 others that have some blue spotting and a couple of fibers are showing a small amount of dark on them! This lock up is going to pay for itself very quickly!!! man I would reccomend it to anyone who has had burnt up clutches!! I wish I would have bought one 2 years ago! This product Definatly get's the two thumbs up $$ saving Mad Mike stamp of approval!! Thanks Muzzy's
oh also I have the Muzzy clutch kit, and Im using Royal Purple oil!

I took off the lockup last night in prep for Bonneville, and my fibers and steels looks fewking great too! About the same amount of drag strip passes, and very few street miles, on a 206 hp motor. Like Mike, I've got the Muzzy billet hub and their basket. I'm using Red Line 15W40 Full Synth

That is the big motor. No problems, just can't run a lockup in the production class at Bonneville. Bike has to look stock, and that big wedge of aluminum pokin out the side of the motor is a dead giveaway. ____________

if your talking about my motor, I did a mechanical boo boo, and did not check my valve clearances, and I had a shim that was not seated correctly, so I bent a valve then after fixing that. spun the bearing on that same rod. Wow the joy's of learning how to build my own motors. before my 12 motor I had rebuilt a few briggs and stratton motors... should be back up and running soon.

Opps, I didn't make it clear. I was asking MadMike.
I knew he built a 1361, then he said stock motor above.
For a lot of racers they are one and the same, but i still trust Mike
to tell the truth. Good luck man and keep us posted.
Crotch, how many time would you say MUZZY for a free crank or clutches for the season? Keep pitching, just keep it honest and give us the whole truth. I don't know what mike gets but he is sponsered!
Hey Rob
Muzzy muzzy muzzy.Muzzy muzzy muzzy. Muzzy muzzy muzzy Muzzy muzzy muzzy
I love muzzy.

Yes the lock-up has been very streetable, I dont even notice it except at the race track. and I can see it on the video where Im launching and you can tell where it Kicks in and pulls the tire off of the ground a couple of inch's other then that I dont even notice it is there. Muzzy's is a great company they have done alot for us 12 owners, and they do sponsor me(Thank you Rob!) but I have paid for the Lock-Up and now that I have been able to work with it. It will save me (and you) so much $$ on clutch packs! I think there are only a few people that really!! abuse their clutch's like I do, Hey it takes alot to get a TFA down the track... right entropy. and On my motor(s) I now have two motors one stock and one 1361, I am planning on having 2 identical 1361 motors for next season, and I am working on a Top Gas 1361 Drag Bike. (8.20 index). and I do tell it like it is, if I did not believe this would make a diffrence for you guys and save you some $$ in the long run I just would not have posted and if some one would have asked I would have said yea I have one. and if anyone has any questions just drop me a line.

MM,
damn right it takes alot to get TFA-ers down the track, alot of clutch plates... Just ordered 22 fibers and 30 steels from RonAyers. When that supply dwindles, I'll see about the lockup ____________
