djcheez:
anyone have any luck with bigger carbs? how bout a 44mm? what work has been done to the engine?

Rick:
I guess I'll be the one to ask...Why?  The 500 already passes everything except a gas can at the van, and will run will over 100mph with the right gearing in stock trim.  What more can one ask for?

djcheez:
i guess some people feel the need to go faster. i agree that the 500 is fast but i am into speed and i want more power. i am never satisfied with what i have. soooo has anyone run bigger carbs with any luck?

Ganggreen:

K5RACER:
