I-Cat.. Anyone tried this ??
mikesmith:
Even if you dont have a dyno let us know how or if it feels differnt and see if it helps fuel milage.
mikesmith:
I see it's in the new MXRacer,they say they could definitely feel a differance in power on a CR250.Improved throttle response,and power came on earlier,enhanced power down low.The only hitch was its hefty price tag,( my words) but that last bit of power is always the most expensive!

Cool, I was thinking about porting and stroking my Ryobi but this would be cheaper!!!

Hmmmm - I think making a K5 easier to hang onto seems more important than making it faster...
Try 14x49 gearing, go out on a nice firm loamy surface, get rolling in 2nd gear, and PIN IT through the gears....in the fat part of 3rd or 4th ask yourself if your bike really needs to be any faster.... :wink: If the answer is Yes, try it again through some whoops/woods...If the answer is still yes, I guess that's why you're riding an open class 2-stroke...WE'RE SPEED FREAKS...!!

You know, the KX doesn't always respond the same way every time. My favorite thing to do with my KX is climb insane hills and I do get in some predicaments sometimes where I wish the responsiveness was a little better. I'm also after better gas mileage as well as I think this may contribute a little in that area. But yeah, I agree with you. I don't actually need any more power. My arms are not equipped to hold onto what I have right now in most situations.
