Awesome! I can't wait to hear your review of it. Especially because you have 2 bikes you can ride back to back. That makes your opinion much better informed than most. |

Mine (300 cc kit) is now shipped. They say 3-6 working days 'till I get the kit. DHL is their shipping company. Looks like the bottom line with all shipping and fees is about $275. If mine looks as good as the photos I'll be a very happy camper.

A thought, since the head has to come off anyway why not have it mildly ported. This engine spends most of its life at 8K rpm where porting should have the most benefit. Hummm, wonder who has a flow bench and knows how to use it?

Another nice touch was that pretty box was wrapped with bubble wrap and mummified in shipping take. It arrived in pretty good shape.

It probably seems weird that I bought a second kit.
It was because the price was low enough that I figured it was good insurance in case my motor has an issue; PLUS there is a guy that committed to buying it from me for his new GPX moto NC250 if/when they ever hit the shores of this great country. |

DHL delivered my kit today. Not only did they beat the time they projected, the package arrived in fantastic condition. My shipper padded the box with a few layers of bubble wrap and the RTC box was unharmed. Note that RTC treats their stuff like the crown jewels. Others have posted pictures of the RTC package so I won't beat that dead horse, just understand that the parts you get look perfect!
I leave on my MABDR trip in about 10 days so I won't even try to install the kit until after that 2500 mile trip is done. Thus, I will be able to take my time with the install and do the same with break-in while I seat the rings to the cylinder. I'm still thinking about having the head ported at the same time.

I've had mine too long and have yet to install it. Seems all of my non-toys have been breaking lately and unfortunately, they get priority.

Spring seems to be the time to catch up on a bunch of that non-toy breakage! I'm swamped too. Lawnmower is 12 years old and finally needs some love. Anyways, my package arrived UPS today and in good shape. For all of Yoycart's difficulties, it looks like they are legit. |

300cc kits locally here in China are around 1500¥
USD$235 I’d be wondering if cheaper sent outside China is posited Anyone fitted it? ECU copes with it? I’ve been thinking if I got another NC250 to try it I’ve had 2 x RX3 and an RZ3 |
