stage 7 is a racing setup from Dynojet. Sounds cool but really not so good for street riding. That kind of setup is used for high RPM operation so you will not make much usable power until you get into the 7K range. Is the bike a track bike? If he bike is in good shape don't let that stop you from buying, jet kits are fairly cheap and easy to replace. If the bike isn't heavily modified then you might want to question the owners intelligence as that kit will only really benefit a modified racing engine with racing exhaust and cams.

The bike is set up for the track,I'm not sure about the cams but I do know it has a Brothers Racing pipe and had a air shifter on it at one point in time.The air box has been drilled out also.It's been lowered,stretched and has a strap on the front of it to keep the bike down.Think i'm gonna buy it today.

just a word of caution....that is a drag bike, not a "track" bike. And drag bikes are the most heavily abused bikes you can buy aside from stunters. I hope you have looked that bike over and taken it for a ride because the abuse you put on a bike when launching it repeatedly for drag runs usually does them in after a short while. I would pay close attention to the clutch engagement and gears. To be honest, it's a gamble your taking. Also, if your not buying that thing for drag racing you might want to consider how it will handle with that stretched swing arm and other suspension mods. That bike is set up for the straight line and depending on how many mods it has on it, it may not run too well for casual street riding. I hate to alwasy be the one on these forums that is crapping on peoples dreams but I know when I was younger I would have appreciated someone giving it to me straight...would have saved me a lot of money and headaches. Good luck with it either way.

Call dynojet. I would not suggest doing this if you want to ride on the street at all. I spoke to them about doing this and they told me that the bike loses a lot of it's mid power and shifts all it's power to the high RPMs. Thus making it much less enjoyable on the street.
