...has anyone ordered from rdd preparation?... I did a few months ago, I wasn't impressed one bit with their way of doing business... The website lists parts as on stock, in reality that doesn't say anything. When one or more parts aren't on stock, during or after ordering nothing, nobody nor the website will notify you. After you go and check on the status of your order (email), you won't get any explanation pro-active help on how to solve the issue(s). You'll have to do with a plain 'not on stock' and thats it. You will almost have to threat them when you want a refund. Communication in general is really really difficult, tiring and demanding with them. Also they're french speaking...so you know... Wouldn't recommend buying from them in these times (pandemic/post pandemic). Good Luck!

no I didn't see that post thanks but I can actually brag that those panels although very nice condition. I am going to a whole , nutha, level. already have my center or seat fairing, fiberglass reinforced, sanded, and primed!!! I have been asking around all over I think I may be the first on Oahu with booster panels with rexy seat bucket which I want so I can use the stock tail section even if I never hook up the lights a booster seat sect might not have room for the gas tank or radiator (rockon)also.

OK so I have the full set of Booster panelsAs far as the front faring the nose cowling and the floorboard and the back of the front where your knees goI am yet to switch out all the plastics yet because it's going to require me to fully redo all of the the plumbing as well as cut holes into these brand new panels which I'm surprised how nice they are I have a white white front piece and a black knee guard but the black is actually like a candy or metallic black that looks beautiful. Until on to the tuning side tuning sigh I have notice while Riding today That the powerband is unusual in that it makes good power from the get go Reaching 9000 RP m's in no time at all from there and there it will though climb With good power until it hits approximately 10300 rpm's from there until 10900 RPM or so it actually picks up noticeably simply which is weird because this should be out of the range of my pipe But it's still obviously there Starting to think that the cylinder has more effect on the power band then people have told me saying that it's just the exhaust and such I've tuned my CVT not not to rev is high But Starting to think there's more power at the top end that can be unlocked even before I replace the exhaust. Sadly yasuni No longer makes the higher end pipes for my platform form they only go up to ACC 16 which is what I was contemplating on buying but held back because I wanted something more suitable no no I'm realizing that if I want something better than that it's going to cost me more money than I'm willing to spend at this point. Maybe 190 Mac Can chime in and tell me how I might be able to take my yasuni R and modify it to make better power... Other than that I've been Contemplating swapping out my rear pulley and tuning my clutch better right now it has the medium Springs I believe which are green And a white concert Spring that is pretty damn soft Trying to find a 34 mm socket so I can change that out Is already gotten red clutch Springs by malosi And a Spring polar Let me know you guys if you think a real pulley upgrade would help help it seems like it must and have never had any experience with swapping The rear pulley before

OK so I was beaten Buy a spree with a daelim engine similar to sym af18, Before I go into all the excuses that I hate to admit We only did 2 races Both from one end of my street to the next these are narrow roads with only 1 lane lane a elementary school And cars parked on either side really only the 2nd one counts because in that race we were both because we were both rolling at the same speed and yeah same speed and opened our throttles at exactly the same time and sadly he was able to pull in front of me Without too much trouble. Now here's my list of excuses where which I have to say because my my pride and all 1st of all I had literally just switched out my rollers to lighter ones or once and was testing them out realized that they We're far too Light And was heading back home to switch them back when I ran into the sky also my my break lover from my backbreak had had a bolt missing that held the handle from going out past its extended point And when I went to push my moped in front of my car to put it away I noticed that it was dragging a little bit. Possibly the worst excuse because it just shows stupidity on my part or that I was way too confident what's the fact that While the other guy was in a full tuck II was too sure that I was gonna win that I did not touch whatsoever and was wearing a motocross helmet with a visor Add to that my front faring was not on but my knee shield was up like how Brett used to have his so it was basically a scoop for air and guaranteed those 2 things hurt my arrow dynamics extremely bad. But I'll give the guy some credit words deserved his build was it was faster than I had expected it to be it had a corsa which is what I guessed when I ran into him I didn't ask what kind of pipe he had but I can tell for sure it was a very nice pipe not APG possibly a scorpion but it was a stroker pipe For sure by the size maybe he was lying to me when he said it was a corsaI'll have to dig deeper when I run into him next and I'm sure I will as he lives at the top of my hill. Oh and his body was fucking cherry a nice paneled spree with disk front ends of course of course and the whole thing was painted a beautiful purple. However II am certain that by next week my farings and everything will look cooler than his even II have just started the teardown actually just finished it which was needed in order to put on my new booster panels and such. I wasn't gonna do this until maybe a week or 2 from now but but yesterday I went to double check the seal at the intake and and after removing the reeds I realized that not only did one of the ridge have a big corner of it missing it's missing but 1 of the 2 bolts on that side holding the region We're also missing so obviously I had to tear the engine down to be sure that if that piece hadn't already burned up or been sucked into the pipe that It wouldn't destroy my engine all of a sudden. The only thing unique about the Reed cage I was using was that it was a stage 66 Reed cage however thowever the stage 6 reads weren't available and the ones I had were damaged so I ordered reeds I ordered ridge for AVL14 which which are much much wider than then the stage 6 cage So big that I had to cut them to even fit into the intake I've token off the intake and the cylinder I'm gonna do some spraying and shaking to make sure that little nut is gone I also happened to notice how there was some weird colored liquids both on the lower exhaust side of the cylinder head and the cylinder and it seemed as though there was a dark patch of blow type of blow by on the top of the piston where the ring Ring Meets Is this just low by possibly from that nut burning or or something else I definitely don't think it's a soft seas as I didn't experience anything like that and the cylinder is still flawless. Another thing I noticed is that that the cylinder E cylinder head cover ever has 2 parts yeah it's 2 parts that had a red meat red may be burned color color exactly where 2 of the cylinder headstuds would connect to the nut holding it. After looking at a lot of things I realized that those 2 spots Were the 2 cylinder studs that happen to have threads threads at the bottom where the cylinder meets the case sticking osticking out meaning that it is not a smooth stud at the very end of it going into the case This has pained me before with putting on gaskets is this something that needs to be fixed fixed or something that is common or can be gotten around or is this the cause of those burn marks and possibly leaking leaking between my case and cylinder all in every opinion matters if Bree opinion matters is awesome and I appreciate you all, Chyeeeeeee-huu.

Oh yeah bro IA 100% agree with you it was a stroker for sure the pipe was a stroker pipe and the amount of smoke coming out of it coming out of it And the fact it was way louder than it would have been with any other type of engine vengeance made my pipe piped engine sound like a mouse made me also think it was Plus I've never in my life seen AAF engine that wasn't a stroker move that fast I don't feel too bad especially especially we'll feel even better when I get a new pipe adjust my clutch and beat him on A 86cc

Still unsure on how the rear 12" tire is going to work out It seems to have the same grooves but but the drum trump is this much much larger I hope that just means that I'll be running bigger bigger brakes which is always good.
