    Dyno graph pic

    this is totally possible and shearer makes good/great drag pipes -just not good midrange or trail pipes ,power coming on around 7 grand and up is not a trail play motor ,making a small single put out big numbers is tricky business ,you get a powerband much like a modern 125 dirtbike ..all or...

    Noob rebuild and questions

    a lean pilot will never make your bike seize like that,the jetting doesnt sound real far off if there was no air leak and it was lubricated my guess would be it was ran for extened time at WOT got very hot and had a seizure

    la sleeve vs ported flotek comparison pics
