dont expect to go over about 40 with it bucking all over the place.  Maybe if you at least adjust the mix screws that might help

put a piece of duct tape over 1/2 the KN, and you're golden. prolly won't notice any difference anyway.

When I rode my bike with a Lunchbox and no rejetting, I couldn't get it to rev past 6,000rpm
