    you gave it away? Did you get the air intake fixed first, or is the other person going to have to deal with it?

    Let's see pics of your Z! No holding back now! Let's see these powerbands in action!

    What on earth are you talking about? Snapping powerbands? I think you might be lost.

    Jinxy, sounds like you bit off more then you can chew. I suggest you give this trike up too and maybe get a 110.
