the pipe looks cool but from my past exper. the largest dia. at the foot peg area is ok just need to be that size for about 6 to 8 inches for top end . do you have any dyno numbers ? ooo yea minus 5 points for the suzuki logo holding a bike with a kx500 motor up lol . cool ride. how fast in the drag 300' or what .

the swap was that bad,usual bugs & details to work out,i was bored.its 1 of my 8 bikes.ive gone 4.52 in 300 feet in sand.109 mph on pavement in the 8th.ive been betting it for about 4 years now.i won 500 dirt drag championship in port huron mich. over the summer,without nitrous they dont let me spray there.

i was looking at that piston mod,how efective is it?

       I was just yanking your guyses chain I have never clocked my bike In the 300 foot. I thought you guys would realize I was B/Sing. My bike is a runner though I know some guys that have some full on  four stroke drag quads that run high fours and at comp hill at the dunes they get me out of the hole but then I real them back in and beat them by a bike length or so and yes the bike is a hand full on the stock wheel base. we radared the bike at 64mph going up the hill last time at the dunes.
