Jack5hd's bike used a lot of oil running the gapless rings.

I've never liked them. More trouble than they're worth IMO.

If you want to use a top-shelf ring, go with either Speed-Pro, or Childs & Albert.
Federal-Mogul also manufactuer's a "Hellfire" ring that is designed to withstand the rigors of nitrous, blowers, and such.
Otto Knowbetter sez, "Even a fish wouldn't get caught if he kept his mouth shut"

Not for me but Axtell must see the benefit, ask Chaz. They also offer lower tension rings. I don't care to experimemt with those either
