Sell it and buy an 2003 HO 800 Summit zx chassis sled with reverse and put on a single Dynoport pipe, I put money into my 01 and i should have just cut my losses and put my cash into a much better model year. The improvements in two model years are too numerous to throw good money at an 01 Summit

Be careful 6000km probably has weak compression already. It won't take much to push that motor over the edge. If you don't want to spend alot of cash I would leave the motor alone and just do clutching, leave can in, you can pipe it but your not going to can a tonne there imho. :beer::)

electronic reverse, Better running boards, HO has more HP. Heated carbs, being able to get the air box and carbs off without breaking the barbed hoses to the DPM "Priceless"
