Welcome Rigger,

have a look around at all this info, I've not even scratched the surface & have managed to get alot of parts that I couldn't have found before.

Apparently they do, but, I'm still waiting on mine to be made & send by the manufacturer.

I too have a full set of plastics coming for my 350. Not lucky enough to own a pilot.

Hey Speed,

When are you going to make up some fender brackets??? I've seen you work & it's second to none, surely those little brackets would be a walk in the park for you?

The combination of a Torque pipe and ported cylinder will not disappoint. Throttle response is night and day difference from stock....

WARNING; Once you start modifying stuff it will never end! :shock: A little Engine work leads to an aftermarket clutch followed by; front suspension work, steering work, a seat, harness, rear suspension work.... Then maybe a little better braking. Then your Pilot can handle more power so back to the Engine to squeeze out some more power and repeat!

Did I forget anything guys? :-)
