(3) Yamaha YZ450F. Of all of the Big Four clutches, the Yamaha’s is the best. It lasts longer, works better, slips less and can take more abuse than the Honda, Kawasaki or Suzuki clutches. If you are a clutch abuser, consider running stiffer clutch springs (in whatever number suits the feel you are looking for).
I love backup camera. When constantly parallel park in boston, no longer need to either feel my car stopped by bumper of the car behind or come out and check how close. Can make it into any “hole” in no time
This is the governor that commands WOT up-shift speeds. It uses weights and springs just like a mechanical advance mechanism in a distributor, but employs two sets of weights for low and high speeds. The governors in TH350, TH400, and 700R4 transmissions are the same. For the record, this photo is of a governor in a TH350.
OMO mandating these drivers assist devices would lower their price by economies of scale. I have not problem with allowing them to be switched off.
One requirement for the 4L60E is that it demands input from a throttle position sensor (TPS). If your engine is equipped with any type of modern EFI, TPS is already part of the regime. But, if the engine is carbureted, this will require adapting a TPS. Luckily, HGM Automotive makes a slick TPS adapter that will bolt directly to a Holley, Edelbrock, or Q-jet carburetor. Other companies like Holley and Innovate also make TPS mounts, but we really like the HGM unit called Accu-Link. This is yet another expense that must be integrated into the cost of a 4L60E.
The obvious advantage for the overdrive is the 30-percent reduction in cruise RPM. None of this is breaking news, and both transmissions offer the same advantages. Now let’s get into what makes them different by first investigating the 700R4. The advantages start with something that’s important to everybody – price. If you’re searching for a used transmission to rebuild, only the non-overdrive versions are less expensive. The big advantage this “analog” overdrive offers over its digital compatriot is you don’t need a stand-alone controller to operate it. Right away that puts the 700R4 ahead in the price war by $600 to $1,200.
12. Side-laced wire-spoke wheels are more than up to the task of riding off-road. Triumph doesn’t report this machine’s running weight; instead, we’re left with the meaningless “dry” weight of 456 pounds. With fluids and fuel, you’re looking at a bike knocking on the door of 500 pounds—perhaps even more. It’s a lot of motorcycle to be chucking around in the dirt, and those wheels are going to live a hard life. Thankfully, the aluminum rims survived my line choices philosophy, which follows a strict rule of “Hmm, too late now.”
Quick take: Like all new full-size pickups, the Sierra has an impressive mix of capability and comfort, and plenty of high-dollar options for the truck buyer who wants to spend. But the brand messaging is muddled; is GMC "Professional Grade," or best known for making more upscale, luxurious pickup trucks than its downmarket sibling, Chevy? Of course, truck loyalists tend not to be bothered by such philosophical questions, and those who already have their hearts set on a new Sierra will find a lot to like.
I thought reverse cameras became mandatory this year? Sort of making annoying sensors unnecessary.. or maybe they are just mandatory in Canada?
One Big Question: How does the Sierra differentiate itself from its mechanical twin, the Chevy Silverado?Aside from a more palatable grille than the new Silverado’s overwrought maw, the GMC offers three optional features you can’t get on a Chevy: the MultiPro tailgate, CarbonPro cargo box, and adaptive ride control. In typical GMC fashion, you’ll be expected to pay quite a bit to get them—the MultiPro tailgate requires at least the SLT trim, while the last two are only available on the extra-fancy Denali vehicles.
The CRF450 rear shock is very touchy to set up. We set race sag from 106mm to 110mm on the CRF. Then, we slid the forks down into the clamps to balance out the chassis. Please note: any change to the shock seriously affects the forks.
The company added features and offers the Silverado in eight distinct trim levels, including two brand-new ones called Custom Trail Boss and LT Trail Boss, respectively. Loosely, Chevy is classifying its trim levels as high value for the lower-priced, less-featured trucks, high volume for the fat and happy mid-grade trims, and high feature for the top luxury trims.
