Default intake spacer

i put an intake spacer on my bike Froday at school and took it for a quick ride around my yard today. i can actualy feel a bit of a difference. the bottom gained some good snap. although the top end lost a bit. but its not a problem for me since Milton is a pretty SX type track. its a pretty good add on for a 125

The only thing I ever put spacers on was my Banshee.

They did offer a little bit more on the bottom.

Madcow, I have a Moose spacer and it did the same thing to my ol' YZ125. This may be the best small mod for a 125 when you need a little help on trails and play riding.

i just put it to the test at the track today. mabey it was all in my head but I was doing so much better. Anyone who saw me ride at the GMB wouldnt think it was me till I took off my helmet. the bottom is plenty better now.

i ride alot of stuff... from tight sx to wide open mx tracks. I do have a shorty silencer on the back, it helps out a bit with the bottom end power.

The shorty will increase the low end and you will sacrifice a bit on top.

I used to run shortys on all my pingers, I liked the grunt effect.

I don't have any problem obtained grunt now however.
