Update on mods: Skidplate, handguards, rc high bars, x-ring chain, excel a60 wheels including 18'' rear, changed out 14tooth sprocket for a 13, and full suspension. Still waiting on rad guards, linkage guards and rekluse clutch.

I got about 20 hours on it, thing is a beast 58hp and insanely light, should improve my racing greatly when I get that rekluse in.

On my TRX700 (Quad) I have a K&N Air Filter, with a EHS Fuel Programmer and Barker Exhaust. Gives me a 20 HP gain. Maybe you could look into a Barker. Very throaty, not annoying and powerful. I love mine wouldn't trade mine for anything. I have a silencer in mine and its still louder than all of my buddies.

Definitely would have rather had the xc. Unfortunately I would not have been able to get one for another month or two and my races start in two weeks. A few modifications and it is the xc anyhow only difference is 18" rear wheel, kickstand, shitty handguards, bigger tank and some.different valving. Oh and a 6 speed tranny

Holy fuck I was in 4th gear tapped and I got the dodge death wobble in my front end of my bike. The bars went side to side completely about 6 times. No idea how I managed to stay on the bike... now I'm nervous. Going to get my suspension all checked, make sure everything is tight and get a steering stabilizer after that.

I didn't bother still waiting for my softer springs. Were supposed to be in last week. Front fork is way too stiff.
