Wildboer Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Last night, after years of doubting it would make a difference, I decided to switch mounting holes on my USI X2's to see if I could reduce steering effort. Turns out I'm an idiot. Steering effort was significantly reduced and turning is still razor sharp. I should've done this years ago. Also swapped from my black set to my grey ones just to change things up. Still can't decide which ones look better though. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thing has a used head on it and several not stock fasteners. The signs added up it had a top end put on a greasy bottom and had a nun repair on top of that. We put 200 miles on it. 76/95 compression. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not worried about the nun repair. Look at my pic you'll see the clean top end and the greasy bottom. He hacked er together. Fucker.

He had it cleaned up good the airbox was spotless but the throttle body is caked with belt dust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angry ginger Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 found several takeoffs emailed for shipping quotes already, be a bit more than a shell and paint but no assembly time for $100 will make it worth it. Next time i buy white, dozen takeoffs in stock within 50 miles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Contributing Member Shifty Posted February 7, 2021 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted February 7, 2021 I was really hoping the issue with my sled was the throttle safety switch. I took it out and taped it open according to the inter-webs but it still cutting out and throwing the engine light up. Hoping my buddy the service manager at the local dealer will hook me up. They have a month back log on service though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
