  1. Ken, TPI . I will have one by 2020  the engineering is all there to get out from under the Euro 4 legal settings. Athena GET ECULMB with full race kit , relocates the injectors, it is no longer TPI but basically throttle body injection. My friends at Pro Circuit have run the OEM TPI bike on their dyno the TPI machines are @ 5HP down from carb versions. Jeff Slavens has the GET race kit on 2 bikes now , I am in communication with him.

    The injector move brings back all the power of the carb models and lets the fuel mix take the standard path from the reeds into the crankcase and up the transfers. The TPI is great engineering effort but of course has limitations it is not a true racing set up its a great compromise for emissions. So when I get my TPI bike I will install the V Force 4 reeds and the full Athena GET race system with an FMF Gnarley with a 2.1 Ti muffler not much anything else needed for full performance. I'm still up in the air for next suspension choice.  But I do want AER 48s on the new 300 so most likely I will move my AER48s onto the next bike. Im also watching all the Euro moto magazines for tests on the system in their world, of course Athena want to sell their system so they advertise rainbows and unicorns.

      A+ for trying!! nah its a fox kidney belt and a TLD roost guard/chest protector.....all I could think was that someone got fed up/hot/hurt/tired and tossed it??? the belt could come off but the chest protector needs to lifted over your head? so how the heck they got there in the middle of the trail? got me???

  5. Hello, I have a 2008 TE510.  I have to replace my counter shaft shaft. Do you recomend a parts souce for all of the parts so I can rebuild and put it back together like new? Seems like I am getting prices all over the map. I know Paul at GP but they are closed today. Who does head and cylinder work on these bikes? I have 16,400 miles with all original parts. I appreciate any suggested or comments you may have, thanks in advance.
