Glad to hear you like your ride. It will make alot of people notice. OH, that can't be a 250 is what
I get all the time.
Did you tune your Comet clutch in yourself? Iwas thinking about getting one but I didn't want to
spend time setting it up. I did get the Team roller secondard clutch though and it did make a
pretty good difference in throttle response.

well here is the thing about that comet cluch. my mom works for them. so they kind of helped me out.i have their pink primary spring(203473a , 2400 rpm engagement), 207689a1 weights. i really like it . my buddy has a 400 articat and would walk a way from me on top end. i put that clutch on the bike when it was bone stock and i walked away from him. also i got a discount on the clutch cause my mom works their, ibought mine strait from the factory for $86.50

Glag to hear it is working good for you now that you have the reedcage you should redo the clutch agine for the added power get it to the ground best. An yes get used to people thinking it is a 400 an not the 250.
