This should be interesting to see how this will work. It's gonna be ready to ride by this week end.
any1 else have this motor?
Well good luck to him and his purchase from those azz's!

I hope he has better results than the few hundred that have been screwed by them.

I would never ever recommend them to anyone let alone buy an engine from those guys who can't even ship a set of pegs correct!

Sorry, didn't mean to jack the thread but I hope he gets some kind of guarantee in writing!

If they are not too big for this system then simply click on "upload photos".

Otherwise you may have to use the likes of photobucket to resize them then upload from there.

I haven't ridden it yet but I heard it! HOLY SHIZZ!!! It didn't sound anything like what I thought! I wonder what it would sound like w/ a bettter exaust set up. I don't think he's optimizing the performance of the motor w/ his pipes. Its a preference thing. I can't wait to ride it! More details to follow!
