Glenn @ GSS sent me this....
"Bob, This is my personal play bike I bought it new in !997 I have a short inseam (only 26" ) so I completly modified this bike in the first few months I had it . The first thing I did was modify the rear shock and lowered the forks by building my own set of pull backs. So now I can set on the seat with both feet on the ground ,And I still have 11.2" of travel in the rear and the same stock travel in the front. One advantage of this is I didn't lose any travel and the geomerty is still close to stock, only It will turn a lot quicker now. At the time I built the bike I used it as a test bed for my porting and redesigning of my designs on the CR-500 engine. It still get's little changes once in a while It flows at 6" Water 94% across the transfer ports and they are perfectly matched. I raised the exhaust ports and redesigned the exhaust runner. I added a few more intake ports. The engine now has 12 ports total . In doing this I was trying to make more H.P.everywhere bottom,mid,and quite abit more on top end .But it being my on personal play and trail bike I wanted to still be able to use pump gas.Anyway to sum it up with a pipe I made here in the shop it makes about 38 H.P at around 4,000 RPM And 61 H.P at 6,300 RPM and at 8,400 RPM it makes a honest 83 H.P. So you can see it's fun to ride And I haven't had it down now for about a year but in 5 kicks it still holds 190 PSI. I'm having poor health again, but I like have something to write about or brag about ,and still loaf around the shop.Your friend Glen (TEAM GSS) NAHA #42"
Thanks for the story and pic's Glenn.... Hope your feeling better soon!!!

Im not sure if that would work Wook, maybe one of these days ill try swapping them.
The hose clamps are to seal the rubber boot. I used to use safety wire since I also hate the look of hose clamps but all the safety wire ive bought is junk and it takes 7-10 tries per loop to get one that holds and doesnt snap while im tightening it...
