catalyst seat has a huge area behind where you sit. They advertise that a 2 lb. fits, but I was wondering if a 2.5 lb would. It's the same diameter but 1 1/4 inch longer.

cool. Which way did you angle the valve? If the valve is down you have to take the siphon tube out right?

also, Did you use a bottle bracket to mount it to the bike? Or did you just lay it in there?

Angle the valve towards the back of bike, it will lay almost at the preferred angle buy its self. I used the tube in mine, the hit is soft but the torque curve/hp is so flat the bike is easy to ride. With 30 jet iam getting an actual 20 hp. Iam also using the dyno tune bottle bracket with the two holes drilled thru plastic fender,an large flat washers on under side. Works fine an cheap. bill at cannon cycles...

Has anyone mounted it valve down under the seat?
I don't have a siphon tube in my bottle, would love to hide it,
instead of mounting it on the swingarm.
How much of an angle is needeed when mounted valve side down?
