From memory i think he was asking 4500 for it. This is going back to January last year when I looked at it, so I'm not 100% sure. All i remember is it was 4-something. He wouldnt go any lower than the asking price he had it for on TM.

Wouldn't you rather a air box because your pod is so close to the exhaust manifold? And about the afm true it looks tidy without that chunk of plastic.

well haven't driven it much but goes good although it looks like the head may be cracked,creamy under the oil cap and temp gets up pretty quick so don't no if i should get another head or get this one welded,it has new radiator so id say they didn't bleed it or thought it was the radiator causing it to get hot but was most likely air pocket.what to do???not to sure bout compression ratio
