What this whole issue comes down to is loyalty and hoons sticking together. Becauise Glen is a cool old dude and has many years of experience and advise to give out, us hoons don't want to "talk shit" Much the same way I will never publicly say anything about DeWayne, I would just take it up with him.
Glen has been cool to me, gave me advise on my weird carb setup on the gen-1, and he bored my gen-3 (I really wanted it done with the torque plate) and he did top notch work

All of his work comes out looking super clean and meticulous, the pictures of his porting work are very impressive. now... to be honest, Brits "race porting" isn't very impressive on the power it produces off the bottle. even well before the bottle when the timing was still up there and it was geared normally, he got walked on my stock bikes running fatty pipes, I know, I was there, I got walked on too, but that was right after I did the first stage of porting work on my gen-1 (just opened up the exhaust and boost ports a little and cleaned stuff up) and Brit and I were pretty close that whole weekend, I think on average he took me by half a length. A couple weeks ago, my kx450f was dead even up the hills with his bike (I do know his timing was retarded and his gearing crazy) but his "race port" bike was still dead even with a bone stock (even a nasty dented header pipe) kawi. later that day we got walked all over by some kx500s. I'm not talking shit and I think Glen is a hoon all the way, but that particular jug doesn't make all that much power over stock and motor for motor my gen-1 would walk all over it (if I could control the damn thing)
Brit has taken the high road on this one and keeps quiet on the boards. not to say it wasn't quality work done, but from what I have seen that porting seems better suited to a trail bike that needs a lot of grunt to hit some nasty hills, but not a dunes bike that needs rpms.
there I said it, take it or leave it.
