ok,here is the big problem i have with juggernaut. the keyway was machine wrong from the factory.
LOOK HOW CROOKED IT IS!
WAIT, i'm not done yet. video too.
and yes it has the full keyway in it.
i do have the tools to broach a new keyway. so it can be fix by just cutting a new keyway on the other side.
technically gopowersports should be replacing that too.
at the end of the day it's still not as good as the 340 junior dragster unit. not even close.......

they will replace them for free if your the original purchaser.
here is a video from them showing how to replace the part if you have a extra hand to help. only thing i didn't like was them putting oil on the threads. i like to blue loctite it down. don't want it to come loss and start to rock the bell housing back and forth.

its good to hear there is a fix for the week part. now all thai is needed is a new clutch helix for the driven to slow doun the upshift without needing the stronger springs that give it a harsher downshift. so that keyway issue, is it mistake on a limited number of parts or is it a more wide spread issue?
i'm sure there other keyways made wrong like mine. but for the most part people probably don't look at this and just slap it on and go....
currently running it on my 73 thunder bolt with a ohh-tecumseh i built. yes this engine has enough power to trash out the factory part in less then 2hrs of riding it and this is no crazy motor. just a good hot rod motor to ride on. so a good built clone will definitely trash the part out in no time at all.
currently also running a 7inch driven in a lower gear hole so the engine can wind out quicker out of the hole when taking off or coming out of a corner quicker. pulls good for a heavy bike. one of this days it will get put back to stock and restored to original. yes i have all the parts for it. for now it's my test bike for things and to ride and have fun on.
also running a big rear sprocket. alot little things going on that helps make this juggernaut work well with this bike. just not one thing.

i pick up this couple months ago. very interesting part for sure. back in the day when they use the jr dragster 340 style driver for 1/8 mile drags. there was a company that made a all billet aluminum driven full spring adjustment and ran on roller ramps and came in a 7 inch for the jr 340/ 20 series style belt. i got couple ideals i would like to try it out on. we will see maybe..........
