Welcome. Removing the butterflies smoothes the bike out and stops te computer telling us how much throttle we can have. Remove them fit a 17 tooth front sprocket and you'll be smiling like a Chesire cat. 1st gear power wheelies make me smile anyway.

Welcome aboard. Can't beat the look of the naked.
Power stands in 1st scares me. I'm working hard at keeping the front wheel on the ground - in 2nd.

We won’t mention that at least one person on this forum put their fly’s back in because they didn’t like the results.
I and many others haven’t found the need to do it.
