Fixed it. Gas was leaking from the fuel filter. Has a round bowl on the bottom that screws off. The o-ring looked to be in good shape so I just screwed it back on real tight and that fixed the problem. I guess it just wasnt tight enough. I Attached some pics of the fuel filter.

Absolutely. I can't wait. I Just have to get a little money set aside. Business is rough right now. It's starting to pick up again though. I want to start with a tecnigas pipe and maybe a performance air box. If I can make it do 50 I will be happy for now. The big bore kit will be a year or two down the road.

..you won't need a kit to hit 50...or a pipe...the free-flow air filter and a 96 jet did it for me...

..hit over 60 actually...oh yeah...

I would highly suggest an aftermarkket pipe or a 2004 or older depends on how far you want to go.If going with the kit go for the rs2 from sip great pipe and price will need a carb to make it right.The rs 1 is nice with a pod will need some jets to go with that,some pipes come with and some don't.I think my first came with a #95 it's ok but #105 or more is better,the stock carb is a pain,but can be delt with.With those mods on the 2009 got my brother in law at 250lbs to 50+ almost 55 with me at 200+lbs.beware once you start 60 is around the corner!

Lol my friends call me pete how did you know... Yep its a 2009 at least I think havent got the title yet. Again the dealer is givin me the run around about that too. >:( They are not getting any more of my business. So I'll need to go that big with a pipe and filter. I had no idea I figured a #90 might work.

Yep restricted for sure. You should see the pipe on mine I have pics of it under "Desetricting a people 50" post. I can hit 40mph on flat ground or about 39 on the gps. And being a little less than 250lbs myself I struggle up the hills.
