Amazing work, l really cant see any issues now,
A bigger battery should help with cranking the kx
It will be interesting to see how the ktm cdi performs
Keep up the great work

Thanks guys I'm pretty happy with the way it's going so far.... I will be using a lithium battery and a mappable CDI unit....I guess you could use the KTM one
