My date code is from 04, Appears to never been rebuilt.... was going to get it rebuilt, thinking i would be better off with a new one.

After 26 races I could really feel mine getting tired no reliability issues just a drop in power.that's with retainer change every 4 races as well as oil change and 4 spring replacements. 604 by the way
