Hi,
I'm looking to get a performance kit on my TV175 over the winter for touring, 2 up poss with a bit more top end and cruising speed but more torque. Been scratchin my head over Mugello 186, but like the sound of the MB 190 race rour kit but can find little feedback of it as its fairly new out. As anyone out there got an MB 190 kit or know anyone who has so i can get some feedback on how it performs?

Only heard of one and it goes like you wouldn't believe, a good fast tourer, really fast. The person you need to contact is Darrell Milnes (Teamsequipe).

The 190 hasn't sold many compared to the big block versions.

I'm not surprised the RT 190 hasn't sold well. It doesn't have the special head like its big brothers, also the competition from the much cheaper Mugello 186 is much stiffer. The mugello 186 is much better than the 225 mugello that the RT 220 is up against.
I don't think people compare the Imola/RB20 with the Mugello186/RT190 (apples and Pears)

I'm not looking for a RB20 fast screamer which correct me if i'm wrong is a different animal, more tourer with some grunt and a keep up with modern traffic top speed.

With the work that the tuning guys on here can acheive why not do a piston upgrade and get the barrel tuned goffy.

Not at all. Different kits for different expectations.
