Well girls I took my stock RX This summer and modded everything.
K&N intake with jetting.
Clutch kit (SchmidtBros)
Exhaust (SchmidtBros)
Geared from 24 top to 22 tooth.
Monoskid (last year).
And just got her out for 3 runs at 500'
In back yard, I can say I ain't never been on or in anything that launch's and pulls so hard, don't ask speed at 500' cause I wasn't about to look down.
I might have created more than I expected. So I would advise guys to make 1 mod at a time, so ya keep a handle on it, I sure wouldn't let a rookie jump on it and wop it!!!
But I think the Ol' Ghost will stay just like it is and I'll just be careful where to wop it and smile.

Awesome! Get some Velcro for your handlebars and gloves to help stay on and you will be fine....

Ran it down my dirt road this morning to double check RPM's, hit 119 on speedo but was only @ 10grand rpm,s.
Still need 200 more rpm's. But @ 119mph on speedo it was still pulling hard.
So all mods kinda worked well together.

Nice. A fellow rider has a similar set up on his RX1 and it beats just about everything when it comes to drag racing.

Stomper no complaint here, just saying Iam getting old and crippled up so I just need to use good sense with that throttle.Thats awsome. But I do have to say that I never heard anyone on here complain about too much power. LOL
Sure feels cool tho to WOP it with exhaust & K&N intake, gears,clutching.
Almost need to re-learn how to drive the beast.

Larry you might be getting old like the rest of us but at least you will feel young again with that throttle pinned.
