I think you can find the Buddy Club's for under 600, or used for around 400-500.

Here's a dyno done by Omniman.


Blue: Buddy Club 3
Red: CTR
Purple: dynamic stage A

HINT: Don't look at peak numbers.

I would go with the Buddy clubs, they will make more overall power. It's worth the extra 100-300.

Good tread: https://honda-tech.com/zero...age=1

I remember seeing Skunk2 Stage 1(Almost like CTR) vs Buddy Club 3+, and the Buddy Clubs made good power over the Skunks, but the Skunk peak higher at higher rpms.
Can't find the dyno.
