Well this past week on Friday I completed my first ever top end change on my own. Took it out to practice Saturday and then Race Sunday.

All i can say is WOW. I didnt think my bike was lacking in power but i can notice a huge difference in throttle response as well as how hard it pulls.

During my off-road practice on 2 different hill climbs; i was in 2nd gear and my 250 was trying like hell to wheelie the whole way up and throw me off. It was a very pleasant surprise.

I was also have a hard time with the back wheel trying to step out on me. Its like a whole new bike to me.. i was abusing the clutch trying to get her figured out but wow, the best maintenance money could buy :)
