I just put on the 39 PWK I bought from John at Sudco. Thaaaaaank You

I love it.

The acceleration is much better. Throttle response is instantaneous. :shock: :D

I only got to ride it up and down the road. But I can tell a big difference.

On a side note have you ever tried using 7/16 high grade bolt on the lower, and front cradel motor mounts?

I was in a pinch one night before a big ride the next day with a bad lower motor mount. I needed a new one and of course the local dealer did not have on in stock. So miked the dia of the bolt hole in the cases. It was .425". So I went to Homedepot to look for the correct metric size. They did not have a 10mm long enough. But the did have a high grade 7/16(.4375)x 5.5" bolt and washers. I bought it b/c I knew I could drill out (in large the hole by) the .012" in the frame and cases. I center up the frame and case hole and drilled them out with a 7/16 bit. Now I have a slip fit and much stronger motor mounts.

Any opinions on using 7/16" bolts for the lower motor mounts instead of the 10mm the factory uses?

If I had any misalignment issues, I would "Match-Drill" it for sure.
