I have the cam retarded.
Pipe and filter jet kit.

Was curious what big bore setup I should get. Who is a good company to get it from?.
Who does the best head work for 4 strokes.

Also I was thinking of raising my bars a bit. Who makes the best Stem/clamps? Bars?

Thanks Kevin.

longer axel, wider arms, longer swingarm, tires not just rims just some ideas. I dont know about head work for 4 strokes. renthal or pro taper bars. I think trinity has a big bore kit but I dont know if its good. Get a steering stabilizer, which I think razes that bars too. More odds and ins but I dont know to much about them because I dont have one. LMAO

How much do you want to spend? The fasst Flex bars are supposed to be the best, and will reduce vibration. $300.00 though. Of course you can easily spend that and more on a new stem with anti-vibe. There are a bunch of shops doing decent head work that have been around a while. Sparks and Baldwin seem to be some of the bigger names.

I bought a chrome Burgard +1" steering stem, it came with the anti-vibe and a polished clamp, all for 190.00 on ebay, I love it and then I finished it off with a Trail Tech X-bar (high) for 60.00 on ebay, the two make a really nice combonation. I could email you a pic of the set up if you were interested,

Yeah please send a pic i'll pm you the addy to where id like it sent. Im about 6'5 250 or so the stock bars and stem just dont work when you try to stand up and ride. With that system did you have to get longer brake lines or clutch/throttle? Was hoping i wouldnt have to change these out wasnt for sure with just bars and stem.

Thanks Kevin.
