hey L-Twinny it looks good but if your engine is surging or hard to tune you need to plug one of your gas lines coming from the bottom of the tank and put your return from your carb in the top of your tank Im running a zen ez25 with m5 upgrade and after about an hour on the phone with tony at whh we determined that the return line in the bottom of the tank on the Rio is to much back pressure on the carb pump after I replumbed my return line the Rio runs like a scalded dawg............lol try this Im sure your engine performance will improve use a drill bit that will allow your line to seal in the top of the tank....................... wild

I haven't had the problems you've encoutered but I bet it's just pure luck. I'll do the modify once I get the chance. Thnx, man.
