Exactly that, why? and can other materials be used? Also, could missing one of the cylinder bolt guide pins cause enough problems to cause a leak? I am talking about the little sleeves that fit over the bolts and into the slots in the head and cylinder to guide the bolts.

Yep, we had to cut a hole in the headder and weld in a 18mm nut to screw the sensor into. Works great so far, my idle is still rich, but runs fine, my mid and top end are about as close to perfect as I think It will get and I am now getting 64mph (yes on GPS) on the top end. now for the 61mm top end and maybe 70mph, doubt it though. I think I will get to 65 easier than I do now, and get there with more athourity.

speaking of waiting for payday, got your package yesterday!! Everything arrived in one piece and looks great. gonna get a new set of rings from scrappydog and go from there. Thanks, now to mod in the oil cooler!!

The Stella's are very popular here and seem to be very good quality. One of them (an '05) was in a spectacular crash during the gymkhana at the Last Days of Summer rally here last month. Took a jump, rider hit the gas just as it bounced on the landing, it went out from underneath him and rolled like three times. broke the headset and handlebars, but teh thing still ran, and hell, the headlight still worked. All of the damage was cosmetic. I was very impressed with how it handled the crash. If/when I get a "vintage" style scoot, it will probably be a Stella. prices on the new 2T ones here in Salt lake are in my opinion rediculously low and will only get lower as the 4T ones come in. If you shop around here, you can get brand new ones with warranty, etc, for $2,500 or a little less.

sounds like a plan!! probably what I sould have done n teh first place instead of trying to use the old hoses.
(wow, must have been really tired when I wrote that)
I meant, "probably what I would have done in the first place"

sounds like paralell is what I need then.
