my advice, if you care, is when you get another engine, just bolt the da mn thing on right out of the box and have fun with it for awhile. break the thing in for a coupla weeks, then tear it down and build it up. forget about the dellortos, the boost bottles, and all that other stuff and just ride it for awhile.

much less frustrating (and cheaper) that way, and as a bonus, you'll have real-life experience to base your upgrades on.

Ben Franklin, an idea man from way back, insisted that patience is a virtue. I would add that failure is the tuition you pay for eventual success and impatience just raises the price.
Very nice words indeed you don't mind I might like to Quote that later somewhere?

I'm just ordering a new engine , that's it nothing else with it. everything else is mounted to the bike , fuel is mixed and sitting in the garage ready to go. i cant run it stock. because i got rid of the stock parts , intake , exhaust pipe. i have the pipe and intake from pirate cycles. I'm also ordering a smaller sprocket , to keep the rpm down i know porting the piston, the tuned pipe and balancing the crank will bring the rpm up i still have the stock carb. for now. later on ill get a better cdi and more than likely make a better coil for the bike. i kno i know , keep it simple . but it isnt as much fun
