the lrp is fully broken in and the picco's got 3 tank's on it.

dyno graphs have actually shown the picco has more power everywhere over the LRP, more bottom and top, but because it has such strong bottom end the top end feels weak, and with the LRP because the bottom end is weak and the top end so strong in comparison it feels stronger, the LRP is defiantly easier to drive and in my opinion a good compromise between performance and not spending a fortune on parts, and it's wicked fun ti drive with in a savage with a 3 speed..
