I don't believe you are hearing how crisp it really is. Kinda sounds like its choked. You can see the black smoke. It should clear up with no problem.

I thought I complemented it. It is a very crisp sounding motor. Plus it was great to finally meet you in person Jared. Now we just need to get the nw guys together at the dunes.

Yes you were, but it sounds better when the choke is not muffling the real crisp tone of this motor. This motor is one of a set of twins Pete built me. The one I ride sounds exactly the same. Does not sound like a 431, more like a new 250 in a deeper pitch. You would be surprised if you listen to the air-filter only. You get just as much sound in the in-take as you do the exhaust.

I love the sound of a built r motor. Enjoy, this looks like a great setup. The Spynx should be here by tomorrow.

Received a new 5 over swingarm today with all the Tm Design stuff for protection, the swingarm without bearings weighs a little under 4 pounds. Hopefully it'll get installed tomorrow.

This is the titanium swingarm that JDI built for you? Going to run it raw?
