Sluggello! Like it. Those kits ain't cheap either and never heard great comments about them,followed one the other day on a blastout with same setup as me (bigbore and 28) and simply didn't have the grunt to climb slight hills in top.

I couldn't make my mind up either on a engine set up, started a engine pole with the help of eden to help the thought process.

However I have gone the Avantti TT3 route; the extra cooling capabilities grabbed my attention.

slower than an indian stage 4 but better than an sx200. not sure what market the 225 was aimed at but its a lot of money to de tune your scooter
i should have bought the rapido for half the cost at the time.

Stick ye fancy pansy kits up ye ass and get a guy with talent to fettle some chunk of iron and ride it like you nicked it
I only say this because I cant afford a Ron Moss kit

vfm= indian stage 4
vfm with more power = rapido
simple plug and play and hopefully reliable power with future proofing cooling....vfm= ron moss kit
dependable reedvalve kit vfm= ts1
potentially the Ferrari of kits with claimed 30+ bhp if you need it = super monza
the question is what are you looking for?
