R&B designs, NO MORE gas gas mods?

[Adam500]

I decided to pull my Christini 300 AWD apart solely to send my head and carb to R&B to have them modded. Nothing wrong with the bike. 200 miles on a 2015 engine.
I did some emailing back and fourth with Ron setting everything up.
Did all the squish test. got everything boxed up and ready to ship.
Unfortunately Ron tells me they are going on vacation and will not be back to the shop till April 20th.
That's fair enough. Everyone needs a vacation.
So a few days later I get an email out of the blue informing me that they will no longer be doing ANY Gas Gas mods.
When I asked why and if I could still get the carb modified I was not given a clear answer and was told I would not get an answer till they got back from vacation.
WTF???

If you're in the UK i can do the head for you. Can add Singh grooves also if you like

I looked on there web site the other day thinking about a carb mod and I seen Gasgas is no longer mentioned on his web site. That stinks for all the guys wanting a head and or a carb mod. If RB is not going to do Gasgas anymore it looks like a good time to start a head mod thread. There are other companys like Eric Gore, RK Tek, Dicksracing. Most head mods its a matter of getting the correct Maximum Squish velocity (MSV) & Squish gap width/height and known what CC volume to put it at for what fuel you want to run. If you know some one with a lathe spend the $20-$25 and buy the Torqsoft squish velocity program and machine it your self.

Motopshyco- I've searched for someone to mod my head and all I ever got was blank confused faces looking back at me, bit of a long story but I basically have an s3 head on at the min not that pleased with it and can get some pinging at high rpm if I'm on the road and would like to get the standard head to the correct squish and volume

Send me a pm mate. Problem with the s3 heads seems to be that they lower the whole thing, so volume is taken away from the combustion chamber and squish, whereas it should be taken away from squish and added to combustion chamber.

I also just pulled me head this weekend to send to Ron and got the same response. Bummer as I live close enough to just drop it off myself. Hoping to find someone else to do this (and hopefully just as good).

Can Matto do this? I know they do machining.

Wow, was I really such a pain in his butt that he quit GG? I still haven't installed my RB modded head that I had him cut last year. I guess it's a good thing I didn't procrastinate that part any longer than I did!
