Dont know about those 2 but not happy with fit on the XS SMIC i got sure that pipes & IC were for another model,pipes have been cut/welded to fit,bonnet only just shuts,induction kit is squeezed in,strut brace touches the pipe at left side, right side has washers under fastening bolt on brace to lift off pipes as was pushing it down and had to use HKS pipe i had on before to get it something like square.expect Pip at WGT to say its an abortion or laugh - very disappointed :reallymad suppose i got what i paid for a false economy

Don\'t know how to post pics. I can give you a pic of an engine with the KnightSport V-Mount. Very nice, and the pipe work is infinitely better than the look of the Dragon unit

Nice, I had to lift my strut brace up with the greddy elbow to get it to fit, just one of those things. Will help to stop the engine rocking under heavy throttle ! Devil ref i\'d expect about 290-300 at the wheels. I\'ve got slightly bigger scondarys (1200\'s) and run happy on 1 bar and get about 320 at the hubs and 380 at the Flywheel !
