    Oh well I guess,15.00 bucks isn't bad. Really cool bike though, should be fun........The red/black looks sweet with those gold wheels. Reminds me of those red and gold Iroc-Z Camaros

    maybe more tdo on the mod

    TY Doug i try to do things right

    now a questi9on i have been told if i use 2 hoses from the adaptor 1 to each head as long as i dont drill out the restrictors in the adaptor plate and i use the original banuo bolts in the head ( they have a retriction aswell) i will increase the oil even more without depriving the engine or gearbox oil any 1 have any info ???

    i will say the gearbox is way nicer with all the extra oil it gets from having top share it witht the heads

    that mad aussie haha
