good to know theres a dealer in the UK for these parts now

my brother purchased a TB Roller Rocker Head from AHP (USA), and it came through with a manufacturing fault that meant it had to be sent back, costed him a fortune in postage twice

I recon the TB head has to be the best thing out there for YX150/160 engines, it makes the bike run like it has a 2 stroke power band

doubt all you want, it changes the characteristics of the engine totally, its really flat at the bottom end and just screams half way throught the rev range like a 2 stroke does. awesome bit of kit.
