Awesome man, glad you got her figured out. I need a dyno tune as well. I know I've got more power hidden in a good tune. Good luck on that race, sounds fun!

so just out of curiousity what other brands of suspension have people tried on the DS650??? I would really like to go with OHLINS...but its out of my price range, not to mention i dont even know where to get it.

I'm happy with my stock setup revalved, and i do A LOT of desert riding, 10 solid days in mojave, ca every november, one example...
