Hello fellow DS owners! I was going to purchase a Stage II Kit next week and was wondering if anyone has one? I would like to know how it performes and if you have had and problems with it?
Thanks,
Raptor-eater

 

I raced a stg I ds650 at little sahara. I won once, he won once. I raced a stg III ds650 at little sahara and was beat once or twice, but usually ran with it - although she was not running race gas.

The looks and quality of the pipe are fair. The carb doesn't come with the accelerator pump and may not be jetted well out of the box.

 

I have stage 1 and it rocks, don't think I need stage 2 yet 1 makes a huge difference no bogging just goes, twist throttle turns a little hard tough, sounds better than a yz 426. no rev limiter is great when you need that little extra boost. my girlfriend has a craptor660 its a good girls bike hehe, i smoke hers now, as far as stage 2 maybe for christmas.also tm designs has a chain roller that wont wear out in 5 minutes like the stock call them 541-535-1612.its 35 bucks but its the worth it.

 

There was a post at bombardierds650.com that stated his stage II kit only dyno'd at 48HP when Ron Wood claims it dyno's at 54HP. FYI, pipes, K&N filter, and jets on a Raptor claim to produce nearly 50HP.
