Re: What do people think ?
in short, no.
take the bike to a dyno and get a base reading for your bike, stick on some race headers, maybe different filter and a race can, take it back to dyno. get them to set it up (they will already have everthing you need), you can go through different size/positions of needles with them then to iron out any flat spots.
there are NO "bolt-on" mods that give you an instant increase in power (unless you are very lucky), they all need setting up properly to work with your bike...thats when you get an increase in power...hence why its called "tunning" and not "glueing".

Re: What do people think ?
^ what he said. Setting up fuelling isn't a simple case of going "i've got xxxx headers and xxxx air filter so I need this size jet/needle". As said, take it to a dyno. And the only way you'd get a 10% increase in power is if you used it to set up a good exhaust system that was already running lean so was down on power.

Fit your exhaust. Take it to the dyno, they will have all the needles there. What i would also do is go there and get dyno'd before you mod anything. This gives you a baseline for your bike.

Re: What do people think ?
akl = all, gi = go. No need to be pedantic, he caught the key next to the one he wanted.
Anyway, what you do is take the bike to them and ask them to sort out the fuelling please, with a cherry on top

Re: What do people think ?
you have a number of intriguing similarities to a former "member", you joined just after he left, same bike, same style of typing, no grammar, poor spelling, same love of 'cargo'...StuntRider wrote:Im blind a stupid look at you saying crap I taking the mick how am I you idiot and what the zxrproject about ?
