They only make a small number of kits a year so you might have to get on a waiting list. I waited several months before I received it. Worth the wait. I have been riding it for three years now at the dunes and there is nothing like it. I hear a lot of people say the Missles have handling issues with the steeper rake but you just have to put the time into learning how to ride it. I know these bikes inside out and will answer any question I can.

It has a jackshaft similar to the Yamaha BWs but it has a way to adjust the front chain. The Yamaha had no way to adjust the slack out of the front chain.(http://forums.trx250r.org/vbulletin_imports/396_8_2017-04-18_4576.jpg)

What rear tire is that? and if you had to do it again, would you go with more paddles or larger paddles? It seems to blow right through that one.
