I bought the new Xray shock shafts tonite...got home and found that they were near as damn it the same length as the old front shock shafts. These shafts were supposed to be for the new shocks!!!!! wasted my money...they were not cheap $60 a pair!!

I have got a pixy instead ! by the way, how much is the sirio?


hey manticore - HK guys. I was just reading through you guys thread trying to learn. the pixie black is made by Rossi and the sirio is made by Rossi too. Now I have read that they are made by two DIFFERENT Rossi's that are engine builders- some say that Rossi is common italian name.

I have a pixie but it's at the shop getting modified right now. The guys in california are saying the sirio is "hella" fast though. That's fast in west coast slang.

The plastic carb just doesnt impressed me on the Sirio. I immediately think of Picco with the plastic carb.
