    CV carbs and pod filters

    So without asking me about jetting, any baffling in the exhaust, the air filters, velocity stacks, you've just up and determined that I'm losing power? Alright, I'm happy to know that dtt has a decent office chair mechanic.

    Hey, right on....I'm down in summerland (hour and a half south of vernon). I have a buddy up in vernon who wants to get into the cafe scene. I don't think there's too many here in the okanagan to be honest, not that I've seen anyways.
