Before powervalves I could do a 125 top end in 45 minutes. That is after doing the same top end several times over one season and being very familiar with it. My kids KX85 took me 2.5 hours last Saturday.

Good job! So bummed I missed that race, it is the first time I missed it in a few years. Might be at the next round but I might have my deal done for WORCS so I might be in Havasu.
