Medium port/polish, .030 over, FMF Gold Series pipe/silencer, Uni filter all running 91 octane. Nothing too special. I'd guess low to mid 40s for HP. I'm on the heavy side myself (250lbs), so I feel like a little extra wheelbase would be a little more comfy. I've had this bike for 23 years and really don't have any complaints, but I want to do a frame off restoration and I dig the tube style swinger. Planning on using the stock rear shock with a new spring and Race Tech gold valve, unless you all tell me I'm an idiot and I should go with something else. Any guidance would be much appreciated as this project will be underway within the next 6 months. I know there are MANY options out there for custom swingers, but I'm not trying to spend $1200 on a rear end that only sees mostly smooth sand. Thank you all in advance! Looking forward to seeing what you have to say.
