I also had Gill Exhaust, ECM tweaked by Tyler Crockett, 160 thermostat with 2 1/8 holes drilled in it, timing advance to 12 degrees, Rapid Fire #1 plugs(they seemed to help with black transom). Jan |

Re: 26 Fairing Install
It was 2 1/8" holes in the thermostat. Dustin Wipple suggested it, along with the timing advance. Seemed simple, so I did it.

Re: 26 Fairing Install
My 260 has the windscreen, and I REALLY love the look. No sugar coating, when the weather is sour, the windshield would be a bonus, but I love the look of the windscreen. Then again, if you're prepared for foul weather, you can dress for the occasion (Gortex and Goggles :drink: ). "Sometimes it's better to look good than to feel good :D "
