I then started with installing the CV4 radiator hose kit.

Here comes my first review. I did not think the fit was very good on one of the hoses. I felt it was to long as the bends "bent to much":

Next was installing the V-Force Delta 3 reed valve. It had perfect fit and easy installation:

Next thing for mounting was the Braking 270mm "Batfly" kit.
Great fit and quality:

Up next was the Works Connection launch control:







The provided template worked fine. A tip from my experience, be careful when drilling with the counter sink drill (provided with the kit), I think I drilled a bit to close to the steel template because I felt that the drill lost its "sharpness" as I think it took relatively long time to drill through the plastic.

How about a ESR 325cc kit, APT smart carb, balanced crank, ISF trans, ceramics bearings, Ti and Al bolts?
