well my engine is ported and polished. and if i get another $50 i will have leager +2+1 a-arms and tcs zps shocks. right now i have an fmf fatty pipe and powercore silencer but i am thinking lrd pipe. maybe a team axle. i just want to know what all of you run.

here is my set up
motor-ported reconfigured head fmf fatty and powercore silencer 36 mm carb k&n lightened flywheel

chassis- houser longtravels pep's zps fronts, duablue axle front 190 and rear beadlocks w/ kenda klaws ac bumper and grab bar dg nerfs and renthals thats the most of it there is some small stuff i do need a rear shock and thats about it

I would recomend the durablue rear lowering strut it is adjustable and lowers the rear for faster turns and your fmf pipe will work just fine for now maybe after you get your chassis dialed in go for a lrd

make it handle well before you make it go real fast.

i would change the exhaust to a sparks,duncan,or LRD....

guesset the frame, make sure the shocks are vavled for your riding style.

get some 18 inch tires and youll be good to go
