Hi all,
Am interested to know if rather than looking to add mods, anyone has decided to remove them all and go back to stock setup?
Just for background, I've got a Fuel silencer (no exup - sounds great), removed flies, high flow filter, AIS blocked, power commander V and autotune, smaller front sprocket, but I don't feel I've gained anything in the rev range I normally ride in.
Don't get me wrong, the bike is a rocket at high revs and I've possibly fallen into the mod trap trying to get something out of an engine that it's not possible to get - i.e. nice low range torque. After all, an engine's character can't really be changed without serious work, simply tuned for best performance, but essentially same 'character' if that makes sense.
All I seem to have done is reduced economy quite a lot (small front sprocket) and not really improved normal riding for the type I normally do.
I'm actually thinking the bike had better torque when I got it and I'm seriously considering removing everything and setting back to stock (auto-tune etc all going back on ebay I guess) even with original exhaust and exup etc.
Anyone else gone through this, and did you feel you'd done the right thing going back?
