RKT 827 kit experience?

Does anyone have experience with the RKT 827 BB kit? Just wondering about the reliability of the engine specifically the crank. Do you need to beef up the crank bearings with this kit? Did you run stock pipe and can? Could you run an aftermarket can (stock one is a suitcase!)

Any other info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Braden

I havent had any experience with the rk kit, but locally built is a VERY good running kit.

Stock crank is fine.. You can run with aftermarket can and pipe.. There is no issue with reliability at all.. My boss has one and has 3 seasons on it and it works really well.. We used to do alot of them but not as many anymore because the new 800R motor you can make a good reliable 860 out of it.. I beleive that we might have an 827 kit in stock actually.. We usually try and keep a couple of the 827 and 860 kits in stock, as they are very popuylar.. If you have any other questions or anything that i may be able to help with i'd be happy to.
