Dan Greenwood back in his days of being welsh had the loudest gear box at craig harris club ever. every week he would build it up in front of craig and every week it was freeking loud, worked fine so i dont think he worried about it.

Ash

It didn't sound very load at Kiddy when i was watching, nothing other than the normal noises from the car or using brushless. If your at Cov this weekend then i can have a look and see if you need any help.

it's because you didnt built it right, hence the diff went bang and now its noisy , give it to someone who knows what there doing and pay them to do it right for you, our gearbox run for over 6 months, and didn't need jack doing to it

God you're right, I'd forgotten about that! Was it B2 or B3?

The only time I have had a noisy gearbox, was with the BK2 because the kit idler (centre gear) gear was rubbish, once I changed that, it was nice and quiet.

I would look at that first, as I have never noticed a Kevlar spur gear to be as noisy as you are describing.

Bring it over on Sunday and I'll look at it for you.

As Danny also stated it could be your pinions, I had a few robinson racing pinions (silver ones), and they were noisy as hell, went back to my Trinity ones and it was quiet again.

If you do decide to change the spur/motor, do it one at a time, otherwise if the noise go's, you won't know which one was causing the problem (if at all).

Couldn't agree with you more G.

Also am I the only one that finds it a little disturbing, that so many grown men seem to take so much pleasure, out of constantly having a dig at Ashley the 16 year old child.

You know those bits of plastic kids used to fit to their bikes so when it hit the spoke it made it sound like a motorbike? Did you try that???
