Have a buddy with an 06 rear. Bought an Alpine front mount header and gas tank and moved it all up front. Took some fabricating but all told I think it cost him $1000 total.

I just wish MCX could put some info and pics of their new apex kit on their webpage;)

I know they are overwhelmed with work, i guess Erik wants to focus on the summer market right now, after summer vacation it's time for the good stuff! :)

I can understand that, but summertime is also "boost-shoping-"/wrenching time. Erik has confirmed that they are coming with a new apex kit. I guess have I have to stop at their shop during summer vacation to see what is needed to upgrade from the old rear mount kit;) I wonder how different the production kit will be compared to Affe Sundström's "proto-kit"

Pretty "look alike" but even better fit and finish!

Hey you should give Myles at Rocky Mountain Yamaha in Pincher a , 627-2127, he has a couple tricks to get the MCX not to drool as much. I will warn you it will cost some $$.

if i just change it 2 a mid mount rather than a front will i notice considerably less lag.I drove an alpine front mount last year and there was virtually none it felt like a 2 stroke.has anyone tryed both the rear and mid mounts is there a big difference:beer;:beer;:beer;:beer;:beer;:beer;:beer;
