Please don’t take this the wrong way, but here are my best answers to those questions.
It doesn’t have a lockout clutch. Eric has developed a clutch system that holds the power with no problems and doesn’t require a lockout. He is the guy to talk to about that system.
Hp numbers, I would rather not give out, but it makes a lot of power for sure. This is actually a motor built with nitrous in mind, so it is down a little on power from what it could be if it was an all out N/A motor.
Weight, it is safe to say that this is the lightest DS on the planet, but like HP numbers I don’t really want to give that info out either.
For those that don’t know it, this bike is the Blue Bus-- Sandbombers old bike that I bought last year and changed up quite a few things.
Other info that might be good to know, I am/was a Raptor guy. I raced my 660r raptor for years hoping to be faster than the rest like everyone else. I still have my 660r and it is fast, 4.4s with me on it and probably 4.3/high 4.2s with a jockey; but it will never be able to reach the 3.9s without a power adder- it just has its limits. Over the years, I have watched Eric’s bikes run and I eventually came to the conclusion that the easiest (and so far, the only) way for me to run the numbers I want to run, was to pick up the phone and call him. Anyone else can do the same.

Why don't you want to give it out is it so top secret, I just was thinking about getting into the dragracing and talk to goodsound a few times on here and was just wanting to learn all I good before i went out and bought one of these ds 650s they are great machine.I just figured that your builder would want for everyone to learn about some of his builds. Thanks for the info. what type of fuel do you guys run in your bikes when on all motor if it is not top secret .
I run the same fuel for motor and nitrous. Sunoco.

I have no idea what his atv weights but from what little I can see from the pictures it's setup very similar to mine. I'm sure his weights less but mine ready to roll down the track with the bar on and full of fuel and the nitrous on weights in the 350 range. Give or take a few pounds. That's not to say I have a real clue what his weighs that but that'll give you a ballpark idea. He probably makes the power on motor that I do on spray though. It looks like a VERY nice setup.

I see your in Landrum, beautiful area. I lived in Greenville for several years and also lived in Landrum....Gowensville actually, up on the hill on Pleasant Hill road. Loved it there.
