It's on order and should be in by the weekend. The 2 questions are: How will trailriding be? Will I loose ground in a drag? I ride with a '00 'shee, so I will post race results.

Get an 11 or 12 sprocket for trail riding. You will loose some top end but gain much more low end and lugging power with out having to slip the clutch.

My snorkle and spark arrester is removed with proper jetting changes. I initially went down to a 12 tooth front sprocket needing more low end for trail riding. After the beforementioned slight modding and a definate increase in usuable power, I have now went back to the 13 tooth front sprocket and believe the 14 tooth front sprocket will do fine (may be wrong though). By the way...I ride some tough trails and steep hills and rarely have to "fan the clutch". Appreciate the recommendation though. Does anyone know if there is a land speed record for REVERSE?

Bash...for MY ride and my beforementioned "slight" mods, I wound up with:
Pilots-25 for both
needles-raised one notch for both
mains-145 left...150 right

I ran this set-up when it was a bit warmer too. Plug looks good.
