Thank ya :D, Needs some tuning, It keeps bogging out and dieing when I punch the throttle.. Whats the cause of that again?? LOL..I know I got the Idle screw set under the air filter, Just the other 2 I'm still not sure of

could be too lean, richen the needle a 1/2 turn and see if that helps you out.

Which needle is that? lol

Now I'm not sure if I am doing 1/2 a turn or what you guys mean by it

full turn means 360 degrees, full circle from 12oclock to 12oclock, one full revolution, here are the needles.

also, clockwise is leaning, counterclockwise is richening

Ahh alright, So If say I took a black marker and lined it up with the flathead slot, made a mark.. Then did a full rotation so it meets back up with that mark?

And.. some pics...

Zeen what's the part number for those stronger buggy shock towers? How about that pin that's needed?

I'll get it here in a min, Just got home from work.. But for the longer pins I'm not to sure, I know they haven them but I did not know I needed them at first, So I had to rip a set out from my old electric and you will need longer hardware ( nutz/bolts )..

Here are some pics of the LED set up.
( sorry couple pics are blurry, but batteries were dieing in the cam lol )
