i finaly got to run my new mt5 and i am totaly dissapointed with it:mad:. it sounds like a fat kid on a moped that is way too small for him. no power band at all just a flat baaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. :p
 
I finally tried out my MT with the jetpro and wow, night and day difference! I actualy have top end now and it doesn't bog as much. I'll be ordering my new spring clutch once I get my servo issue dialed in.

If your going to stick with huge MT tires a 7500 or 8000 rpm clutch spring will help out. Get that pipe on there and finish breaking it in. After a few tanks you can start to lean it out. It will wake up!

i just cant belive how much of a differance there is between this stock mt5 and my old pro. my old mt used to fly compared to this one. i had the 8k spring and 29/31s in it and i was really happy with it. i just didnt realize how much a pipe did for getting it to scream.

The stock tune is only good for break-in. Once you have a few tanks of fuel through it, you can lean it out some. That will give you a very noticeable power gain.
 
thanks rc dad,but like i said though this is not my first rodeo. its tuned. it just sucks with that stock can on it.

its a toss up between the ddm or the jetpro. im leaning tword the jetpro though it just looks like its a little better quality to me. and im pretty sure i have an 8k spring kicking around in my parts bin that has to be installed.

I'd go with the Jetpro, I've had both and I like the Jetpro much better...
