Silverado,
How much work is it to change weights? I live at 2600 and ride to 8000, this sounds like a needed change.

weetoots it sound fairly easy to change those weights out.chopperbill could shed more light on this subject than i could,he already has changed his.I think it just allows the engine to (spin up)more quickly that = more power.lets hear it chopper how easy it it to change.

I swapped the break-in oil after about 10 hours on my non-HO Sportsman.
