My 06 X2 had MCs standard motor the RTP 310hp and it looked sooooo primitive with the round flame arrester thingamabob almost like a rainbird sprinkler top. So I put this carbon fiber look a like hood scoop on it. What do ya think?

I dont know why MC doesnt change it. The performance of the RTP is excellent, but it looks 20yrs old.

They dont change it because the pretty motor, the mcx is 2300 bucks more.

Exactly. They want to give you a visual reason to upgrade.

That and 40hp, the old 310hp TBI Predator had a decent look to it. The MCX has Cats on it as well.

Billy... I think you spend too much time with the hatch open. The only time I open that thing is if the boat doesn't run.... LOL!!

The rest of the time we're riding, or there's a girl sunbathing on top of it.

Nice though....

I do agree. That motor works great for 90% of applications. The torque numbers are almost exactly the same as the MCX.
