So I got it today and the item number is 69730 anything I need to know about this item number motor before I start to mod it?

Here is a couple things I learned....
Don't ask questions about modding it with stock internals
Try to buy a billet rod and flywheel before anything else. Once you get those two things.....mod away

Now I know it's covered here somewhere but when I put my k and n filter on with header what jets should I use and is a new etube needed? I plan on drilling both jets myself I have a drill set on order #61-#80 bits which bits would I use I was thinking #65 for main wich is .35 and #76 for low speed wich is .0200. Does this sound right?

Don't mess around with the idle (low speed) jet- leave it stock. I've read on this forum about more members having PROBLEMS after doing so than any BENEFITS gained. We have both the older HF (blue) 6.5 "Greyhound" clone and the newer HF (black)6.5 "Predator" clone and have never screwed around with the idle jets, and they both run PERFECT.

How can I keep this bike from doing wheelies it picks up every time I yank on it..should I change the clutch spring to green or change sprocket or both... This motor with header and air filter has so much torque it's crazy.

Just add a 20 lb. weight to each hand grip and call it a day! :shrug: Just kidding! Gearing can tame the beast, but you will end up with a higher top end!

I need that in my life!! My predator 212 is bone stock, it has plenty of power but i'd love to have a 10+ hp beast! I really miss my modded Briggs 5hp (sitting around 7-8hp). It REALLY revved up top but of course it was built up. I want a simple jet change and e-tube, intake and header and call it a day.
