what up word? art?? thanks for the replys, sorry i missed you last eve.. i was getting my belt cover polished, looking WAY FKN GOOD!!!!..not perfect like areomysts cover but i am digging this mod. anyway, i put in some 8 rollers... still seem to have a touch belt tug/slippage, runs good, have the high rpms BUT the ACTUALL takeoff osnt there..seems to still have slow take off, goes real good to 20-25, falls off a bit with a steady climb till 45, then it takes a stretch to get my 49-50. wonder what a 1000 spring would do???....... instead of answering your spring there, ill answer here...................thanks for the correction.. but my oem, ncy springs are the same..malossi, leo are shorter, no wonder they are a pain... i picked up a set of red flys sat, (ncy), they fit fairly easy, cuz of the longer hook...sending my malossi ones w/airfilter back and order the malossi reed cage instead....hope it works good.....
