Default 2018/19 aftermarket cylinder head

Has anyone tried this head?
https://www.2strokeheads.com/index.p...formance-heads
I contacted them to get one and the price changed from the listed $150 to $325 so I want to make sure it?s worth the coin before getting one

Everyone raves about this head.
The $150 is to modify the OEM head.
The other is a full billet head.

Best money you will spend on your bike. He has 3 different options available. The cheapest being reshaping the stock head, next would be modifying your stock head to accept his insert, and most expensive would be the full billet head. I went for the billet head and it was worth every penny. Power improved across the board drastically, and overheating is near impossible now.

Thx for the input guys.
It could be due using my phone but the website showed $150 for the full head.
I figgered for that price give it a shot (and it seemed cheap) but their website dosnt do international and I got correct price buying via email. Just abit short of cash right now so wanted some opinions before spending that much.

I have a GP250 and straight off idle the bike is doughy as so hoping the head will improve that area

I had them cut a stock head for 100 octane fuel. Noticeable improvement to bottom and mid-range power. They will also cut your stock head to accept different inserts. This is nice as you can run a higher compression insert for higher altitudes.

Have you changed the stock needle jet yet? That thing is garbage and robs tons of bottom end power

Have a 42 pilot and NECW on 3rd clip installed. Plug chops say it?s rich but less power if I lean it any more

I never had much luck with the NECW but lots of guys running it. My go to has been the N3CH on the 3rd clip. Plenty of bottom end with a nice hit into the mid range.

Another thing that gave me a nice boost in low end aside from the RK Tek head was an FMF Gnarly pipe. Along with the low end gains, it really smoothed it out

Do they require some sort of squish measurement before purchase of the billet head? I am looking at getting one, but wondered what was needed prior. Thanks.
