This one has just about every mod imaginable thrown at it.
Only big pinger i've ridden is an '05 yz250. It was harder to hold a balance point wheelie than my crf250, but way more fun overall. Not just the power, but the light feel (actual weight and less engine inertia), no engine braking, snappiness. Good stuff man.
Bought these, I reckon they are going back to Amazon.

Stock height anti chevy-lean moog coils. Did some sideways shenanigans this morning and remembered I hated driving my truck in monster truck form.

The 92 and 93 trans are a no-go if I remember correctly.

Holy hell, the Kirby's still look like they were designed in the 70's?? Looks almost like Mom's old kirby.

And that's a damn nice pooper-scooper. I have the model just below that one. Looks similar, just less aerodynamic.

Yeah, theyre a bit archaic looking for sure. I went with the biggest baddest **** I could find, its got to pick up turds from a 100# german shepherd and I didnt want to have to buy another one.

Did a kirby sales rep stop by your home and give you the full demo?

Yeah, we were considering getting a better vacuum and shampooer anyway and they happened to stop by. My grandparents had one and they loved it with two dogs and a kid with another one on the way we needed something to clean the carpets better. Next year Ill probably rip all the carpet out of the communal areas anyway and go to tile but having a little one on the way Id rather them have carpet to fall on while theyre learning to walk first.

I have a pretty nice Dyson for the dog hair, how does this Kirby compare to a good Dyson? Might have to look into them
