It does. Over here it was turning a 28X10 mesjlik at 6500rpm on a BMB pipe and hauled the 2.6 Comp ARF 260 around like it was nothing.

I thought this thread was info on the DA 85. Maybe you can go somewhere else to start a pissing contest.

That sounds reasonable -I would expect that kind of performance on a properly fitted pipe .
I have caught a ration of shat from clowns who have not run the same equipment I do -simply because the results are not what they wanted to hear.
Till you get a hands on comparison don't get too caught up in the figures. .

Pissing contest?? Some real comparision based on real figures is that pissing? exscuse me SIR? FWB where's the ghost? some of you US people need to open up your eyes .

As soon as people challenge or compare an US product with a foreign you start up your war.

FWB it is fine with me that YOU think, only thing that works is DA

Ay guys, take a step back from this and don't get fired up. This thread is about DA 85 performance, results, and discussions and nothing else. Please leave the rest at the door, we're not going there.

Thanks.

One of the young guys over here has just put together a 2.6 Comp ARF 260 with DA85 and BMB can. Swinging a 26X10, from all reports it has plenty of power. He will be using it in the Freestyle portion instead of his 3m Comp ARF 260 in our upcomming DA Challenge. They are playing for $4000AUS cash in the freestyle for first place, so I reckon he likes the performance.
