move on to the suspension..... you've done pretty much all you can to the motor minus starting over, n going bigger....

There is a 446cc bore stroker kit for the 350 from these guys.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

The ignition kit is a waste of money for the 350. But if you have money to waste unlike myself, they say the dynacon or dynotek or something like that is the way to go. If I were you I would get a GOOD port job and some larger Kibblewhite valves installed. That will make WAY more difference than an ignition ever will. You need to do whatever you can to make up power you're losing from that BS cam.

If you have all of this done, and it's still not fast enough, you need another bike.

The ignition will not do anything on the 350 because it doesn't have a rev limiter. It may change your timing curve a little, but it's not worth the money. If it was only like $30 or less, go for it, but it will not add enough power to compensate spending $100 or more.

what about a better cdi?????????dynatek maybe

Yeah that's what I was talking about was the CDI box. They say Dynatek is the best, but still a waste on a 350.

You would still be able to run with a strocker kit, but if you are wanting to race I would do like Raptor450 siad, buy another bike......

If your just want to ride, A banshee rear shock will work, and you should be able to find one for cheap, and there are diffrent options for the front, just depends on how much money you want to spend, becuase you can spend alot quick and not see the advantage.
