that's what a buddy mentioned too. I was thinking the FMF fatty pipes would help. if it's a new reed, i will run out this weekend and pick it up. Yeah, if you have the bike a month or two from now, I might consider taking the KX off your hands. I want to invest in the YZ for now. i agree, your price is very good. Thanks for the heads up on the V-force reeds. For a $100, that's a nice little add-on.
