Anybody in here whom are aware of any parts that may solve this problem or ways of adjustment on the original equipment ?

And now while I am at it - I wanna buy the ultimate spark plug for my XTX as it is running very rich (due to the PCIII) and backfires ALOT - it may help a bit on this "problem".

Technically, it's better to use all your fingers on clutch brake because if you have brake in an emergency, do you honestly think a single finger would stop you?

Just my 2 cents.

I do understand that the clutch can be a bit tight on these and if you look here:

You'll find a mod you can do to make the clutch a little lighter.

If you've got a PC3 fitted, and its backfiring alot, its likely you haven't got the AIS blocked up.

It's similar to this:

And involves blocking a pipe from the airbox. I personally covered the exit on the airbox with insulation tape and it seems to have worked for me. There are many ways, just do whatever you think is right.
