The only problem I have encountered so far is a few stutters in the middle of the powerband. I just put an 07 carb on it last night which solved that. My polini and blue springs just came in the mail today. I should be set after this. I might hold off on the big bore for awhile.. maybe when it starts snowing.

not yet...

I need to get the big bore and some carb/air intake mods first!

I've had my polini variator for like 3 weeks now.. apparently they screwed up and packaged the wrong ramp plate with the new kits. Now I am waiting for the correct one to come from Italy...

where in Indiana are you? Roll up to Indy sometime and come ride with some rucksters up here. I'll have my Ruckus swap finished by spring of '09.
