His suspension is set up a little soft, except for the forks, and we modify his seat foam to be real cushy. As far as power, we use a different cam to smooth out the power. He likes it to be smooth, like the old Honda, so it's soft off the bottom but revs out on top. We've also modified the clutch to hold more oil and keep it cooler. The excess oil that would normally drain out when you overfill it, it now gets recycled. We also drill holes in the clutch basket. Plus, the clutch arm is hydraulically operated - Scott definitely uses the clutch." cue •• n __ • • MARCH 28. 2001 73
