I'll give the throttle grip mod a go then Hovi5. Got that to do along with fitting a ciggy lighter under the pillion seat and patching up a wee bit a scratched fairing and an indicator replacement.

So now presumably you have a few miles under your belt any new comments? (especially now the placebo has worn off ).

You don't get any extra bhp with the throttle mod, You just use full throttle more!!

If you would only have listened in the first place, its Impossible yes, simply Impossible by design for the throttle mod to give any more HP or faster engine pickup

The tank raisers on the other hand will help the engine breathe more easily and presuming you don't get too lean, that should give you a little bit more. I doubt we are talking more than 1-2 hp even at speed though?? ... Its impossible to say unless you had a dyno and wind tunnel ... but access to plentiful clean cool air is always a good thing for HP

Wrong Wrong Wrong Wrong Wrong Wrong Wrong Wrong Wrong Wrong Wrong!

It adds at least 300bhp and will make women, (or men/goats/whatever you like, we're not prejudiced here), fall at your feet and desire you to their very core.

And you'll get a rebate from the Inland Revenue and dispensation from the Queen to break any old speed limit you like and be immune from prosecution.

Plus a dinner date with Kylie, (or - insert 'celebrity' of your choice), paid for by Tony Bliar hisself. And all for the price of a trip to a Yammy dealer and a few quid of your hard earned.

Little bargain!

(PS, this thread is sooooooo boring I'm locking it as a public service. No, don't thank me - you're quite welcome.)
