Oh, I see your 2nd post disappeared, you aren't leaving us hanging. You are just trying to figure out the website.
I'll be patient.

Ok, sorry Maximus. You're right. I thought I had created a signature w/ the details but apparently I screwed that up. Anyway, here's what I did to this bike to unleash the beast in her.
First, I did all the free mods to open up the airway. Screen removed, air box lid removed, NoToil A/F, drilled ou the crank case breather hole in the air box, and removed all the smog crap and capped that off. Then I ordered Bill Blues 351 big bore kit and Mikuni 33/34 pumper carb. While I had it pulled apart I sent the head to Kyle at Lindsay Machine Racing in Utah, they ported it out on the flow bench to increase the air flow specifically for my low end off road needs (I ride mostly GNCC type woods and the occasional MX Track or hard enduro type terrain). LMR also did a complete valve job and increased the intake valve size by +1 using Kibble White, white diamond, one piece valves. I have ditched the stock exhaust and replaced it with an FMF Mega Bomb Header and a Q4 slip on pipe. Other things that I changed include:
1. 50 tooth Renthal rear chain wheel
2. EK zero stretch lime green chain
3. Edge design tail light mod wit the 12 O'Clock Labs Board (whale tail & rear turn signals into the trash)
4. Tusk D-Flex bark busters with the integrated turn signals (front turn signals into the trash)
5. Renthal Bars
6. Pro Taper adjustable clutch perch
7. DoubleTake fold away mirrors
8. Dunlop D606 tires front & rear
9. Factory FX O'Neal/Monster Energy graphics kit
10. Full suspension revalve, re-spring & rebuild by FTI Racing using a shock dyno. (this shop is AMAZING)! If you want your suspension to be all that it can be send it to Cal Northrop. You won't be sorry you did. There's no sense in having a bunch of power in your right hand if the bike doesn't handle properly for your weight.
11. Heavy duty tubes and rim locks.
12. IMS 3.0gal fuel tank
13. IMS Oversize foot pegs
14. Utah bash guard
15. CV4 Radiatir Cap
I think that's it. It's raining so I'm not looking at it and could have forgotten a minor detail or two but nothing of any significance.
Anyone want to buy some spare parts? I have plenty of those after removing nearly 1/2 the bike.
The way I see it, the only other way to get a street legal, truly capable, off road machine like this is to buy a KTM 350 EXC-F for $10,000+. Let the record show, I'm not saying that's a bad idea in any way. In fact, maybe some day... I sure do like having a license plate on my dirt bike. ��.
Happy New Year to all.

Crappy night time phone pic, but you get the idea.
My most recent mods. A LED light bar and a heat formed windshield and mounts. The light is wicked bright, it lights the whole road (I mean from side to side) as far as my high beam shines! And the windshield comes off in minutes for real off-road work.
And a new black fender to replace the turkey smashed and held together by packing tape old one.
