I'll try to get a dyno test BEFORE and AFTER modding, also take

Not right off hand. D-tracker parts are hard to come by stateside.

we have a bunch of offices in japan, i could have them forward
me the good stuff to the us


as far as the dyno test goes, i called the local tuner this morning,
they can run a dyno, it will not be a 100% accurate because of
the offroad tires but they say close90-95%, good enough for me,
we should see the gain of HP with the parts, i'm hoping to get an
add. 5+ hp out of it after all the parts are on

Dyno is only 50 bucks, i'm gonna have two done (before and after)

Too bad you don't have some cheap or used street/dual sport rubber to put on rear. 90% could change an actual HP of 24 onto less than 22hp. Do a search for Nobrake's dyno after installing the 331. The bike was bouncing all over the place on the dyno drum with the knobbie on the rear. It wasn't until some less aggresive rubber wasinstalled thatthe HP reading became respectable.

Yeah, for my 2nd dyno run I used a Kenda 761 which is inexpensive, it made a big difference.

Out of stock...dang..will google for that tire and
get one, maybe one of the local dealer can get
one quickly

my dunlop has about 3-4mm left, i assume within the next
150-200 miles it will be a slick than its time to get a new
tire anyway
seems to be out of stock

my profile is at about 3-4 mm, when i take the dyno
it should be almost
