More weight, More performance
Hey yall just got my new roller weights in, I ordered two sets, one is 6.5 and the other is 9.5 grams. I figured since the stock rollers are 8.5's I'd try both directions. So first I went with the lightest weights first, hurried up and jumped on with a huge smile on my face but to my disapointment they SUCKED with the prima pipe the thing ran like shit. You have to keep it wide open to get it to go anywhere. WOT it topped out at maybe 40mph WTF and no wheelies. Burnouts were pretty easy, just stand in front of the seat and hold it with your thighs, hold the front brake and with your thumb roll the throtle down. Just be carefull mine started a tailwhip movement to the side then it grabbed and I went for a ride lets say.
It will do that with just a pipe on it or if you take the bolt out of the side of the exhaust just before the muffler and it sounds pretty kool too. So i went back after a few more burnouts in the alley, and threw in the 9.5's WOW thats what the bike needed. It can now keep up with the pipe, since the pipe gives it decent low and mid range acceleration. Now the thing keeps pulling and pulling. And it still does burnouts!!

with just the pipe i would only hit 59 - 60 now it hits 64 all day long and i weigh 150 - 155. Thats basically the same top end as stock but the time it takes to get there is alot faster.
