    Thanks, Rob. I knew they were relatively low-RPM engines, just didn't know what the limit was.

    I have a similar situation on my Wing.

      It is not (money) expensive for the parts you need to re-jet your carbs. It will cost a lot of hair, and even more frustration to get them dialed in correctly with the pod filters. ESPECIALLY if you don't know what you're doing. The best, easiest, and smartest thing to do, is to put the original airbox back in it. As long as you still have it that is. Tuning for pod filters it very fiddly. You have to get your carbs PERFECT through all of the fuel stages. Do yourself a favor, and save yourself a lot of frustration, put the airbox in it with a new OEM filter.
