When they change the map, they are changing to the two wheeler map system. In other words, the atv is slightly detuned. Aside from that, the cylinder is too thin for any major improvements in the big bore department.

Now, when you want to buy a cam, a piston, etc., good luck. There are so few units made that nobody is willing to waste their time on the parts r&D.

First hand experience. Broke down a friends crackandfail after he broke a tie rod end and baled hard. Decided it was too costly to first find parts and then build the engine. I did get some improvement from port work and some chamber work though.

I wish R&S Performance luck.

I really want a Cannondale but they are too expensive. So i think when I get a new quad I might get the 250 R. Its a lot cheaper.

Tell me this! Why do the manufactures always detune quad motors? They take a motor out a bike and put it in a quad, but theirs some horsepower missing! Less power to move more mass, don't make much sence to me.
