Rode the Beta with RK Tec head today. Power valve screw out 1.5 turns. Factory stock jetting. 4000 ft altitude 50 degrees f. Very smooth strong power from idle bottom to top. Amazing! Ran it very slow on a trail for quite awhile just to see if it loaded up . Not even a hint of blubber, just instant strong electric power.

might have to look into the RK Tek head when I put a new top end in my 300RR RE next winter. Sounds fun! I can't imagine it needing to be any faster though. ha ha!

You might not need the head living at close to sea level . I live at 4000 ft and go up from there so the head is a benefit.
