Thank you!

In the mean time I had some trouble with the EVO.
It seems that when revving the EVO hard, the bolts on the rear fender and exhaust mounting, tend to loosen.
Make sure you put locktite on them!
I've also discovered an annoying squeek in the rear.
I can't locate from where it's coming from. A squeek probably generated by the engine vibrations and plastic plating rubbing against each other.
Another thing is the EVO has hopelessly complex tubing!
It has like tens of tubes, difficult to see which is fuel and which is vacuum hose; but the vacuum hoses make up for 75% of the tubing (lots of T-splitter pieces in there!), and going everywhere, from the carb to the air filter, to the cvt etc....

The EVO looks very nice, but if I have the choice again, I'd probably go for the much sleeker PowerMax, which IMHO does better on gas mileage, and performance in general.
