The SS? What was your impression of the quality and overall package?

yeah the article made that direct comparison for the CL version, but crickets on the SS version. Almost like it is aimed at what used to be YSR market but updated technology and 4T instead of 2T motor.

this ad in my local Craigslist shows more of the SS version...

UNI filters also sold nylon jetting kits in the 1970s. Single cylinder applications in multiple sizes. I have 2 of those kits: 1 lived in the toolbox that went to races with me and another stays at home for initial jetting on new builds.

why do suppose that is? You Get What You Pay For!

the only cylinder kits I've seen that are comparable to OEM quality sold by the guy selling KVELDWULF.

I bought 1 set couple years ago for a little over $200.00 to check out. Amazing for Chinese manufacturing. I then decided to buy another set when he dropped his price around holidays to ~$190.00. Again, great quality. Now he's around $160.00 range most the time. There's lots of complaints out there for the REALLY cheap under $100.00 sets. Misaligned sleeves, casting issues in ports, etc.

You also have to make sure you are getting the High Power US, UK porting version, or you'll end up with LP porting as sold in India. Caveat Emptor...

possible to post a picture of it? I have a couple new aftermarket ones here I bought hoping it might work on some of my dirt bikes but didn't pan out (win some, lose some, etc).

They never got mounted or ran gas through them.

bummer. Stud just back out a couple turns or actually strip portion of itself and/or threads in cylinder?

back in the day Doug was advertising looking for R5s to buy to build the trackers. I had a rolling chassis with lower end I offered him. He sent Steve down to fetch it in San Diego and I believe that frame became #3 or #4 of the Tracker series. I was hoping to see some for sale over the years as they really appealed to me (before I had the $ to buy) but have never had a shot at 1 since I could afford it  :sad:

great work  :thumbs: Looks like there's a little groove in case ahead of the CS sprocket- is that manufactured that way or chain wear from a previous owner?

Tomac wins A1  :vroom:

Fun fact: I live in Cortez, CO where Tomac grew up. He's got a huge compound about 20 minutes from me on Eastern edge of Cortez in next town over.
