DCJENS,
The 43 is a lot of fun. It does make the front end a lot lighter though.

I put one on as well. I like it on the street. I ran last night at the track and it gets me out the gate without big wheelie's but the gear doesn't seem to like me (195lbs) on the other end of the track. MPH is way down.... I love the way it feels on the street though.

I've been running a Vortex 40 for 2 years. Still fast as hell (no drag results) and the speedo is dead accurate.
