Learn how to jet it yourself. You'll pay $50+ to get it jetted.

It is a 30 minute job plus however long it takes to remove plastic/gas tank.

plus you are just starting to mod your machine. You are not going to stop here so you will save a lot of money in the future if you learn now since you be rejetting it again and again down the road

Learn how to jet it. It's really easy, and you can do it way faster and cheaper. There's literally hundreds of threads about how to do it.

haha looks great now you just need some tires

Yeah, lol, gotta agree with boneless. Looks good, now you need some tires. Also, are those 22's? Because they sit damn close to the back side of those nerfs. If you don't ride in really rutted trails I'd suggest getting some 20s when you get new one's. That way you don't run into the same problem I did. Or not, doesn't really matter, just my opinion.
