Are you taking it track racing? How often do you run at Wide Open Throttle at the peak of the power curve?
Are you really after peak power (torque x revs) or more roll on torque? At what point in the rev range?
What's your budget for re-jetting and doing dyno runs?
InB4 if you want a more powerful bike, buy a more powerful bike, it's the best use of your money.  ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

I'm not really too fussed, it's just the current exhaust system could do with a replacement and I was wondering if there are any particular brands to go for...
I've only had a day to ride it so far, just coming from an IL4 400cc I'm really enjoying that low down torque grunt, so I suppose more of that stuff would be great. The bike will spend nearly all of it's life inside London, so it should benefit more.
I'm soo used to low revs, I have been riding in the 3-5K margin, but occasionally running it through the gear all the way up-to 10k but there's never any real reason to rev it that hard, it pull's well enough lower down and there's not much more to be had higher up.
What would you go for Roger? (apart from another bike of course....)

Old Thread Alert!
