Thanks YOOP!
The red Murrays are few and far between. I have only seen two other ones!
Not a big opportunity to get more from the Tec motor. It does run well and will serve you hours of fun! Do the normal maintenance. Change the filter, keep the carb clean, with clean fuel, lube the clutch via the zerk fitting(just not too much!)and ride it like ya stole it!
Once you have the need to go faster is when you need to be creative. The Pred motors barely fit with stock tank and the angle of the rear down tubes and center mounted shock are all obstacles for headers, intake, etc. Ya got get creative and know a good welder!
Best mod I did was make a strut that runs from the rear brake cable anchor to the engine plate. There is a lot of flex in the cable anchor. This will make it solid and the brake will work much better! I can lock mine up and I am a trim 250!...not on the white bike yet, but on the purple one below
