Need more power?
Bike mods are something most of us ,myself included, enjoy doing.Power wise its bits on,bits off ,change this, the never ending search for
a bit more power (hopefully).Is it because we like tinkering or because the bandits a slug (obviously not )The amount of work some people
go to is staggering and no expense spared. Good on them i love looking at what they have created. For the rest of us its on a smaller scale
chasing a few more h\power or a bit more smoothness Thing is ,how much power do we want (really ).The bandit is already smooth and
no slouch. Speed limit is 110kph so why arnt we saying ""good enough".
If i want to faster wouldn't it be easier (and cheaper) to twist the right grip more or quicker ? When was the last time you felt the
throttle nailed to the stop,or the rev limiter cut in. If your anything like me virtually never. A v-twin is totally different but a inline 4 with
its power down low ?I'm just thinking out loud here and having a bit of a laugh at myself at some of my attempts for 1 more h\power.
Maybe i just like tinkering.-------You ?

Losing weight is the best form of power increase on a bike

I'm of the opinion my FA has plenty to gain by having better breathing and farting...I'll wait till it's out of warranty for mouth and bowl ops!
