Bottom end of the bike is much the same as full power, its after about 7000rpm that its starts to feel sluggish. I find mine will hit 90mph no probs, after that 100mph takes its time and then you'll be lucky to see anything more than 110mph with wind behind you, i've seen 110 on the motorway before

spend ur money on handling rather than performance mods ohlins fork springs and thicker oil dramaticly change the front end, also consider a ohlins rear shock, a steering damper wudent go a miss to control those tank slappers when you are really giving it some, also sticky rubber michelin power race are great for knee down grip also consider pirell diablo's or mezaler sportec m3. As for performane mods exhaust systems offer power gains and relese that great v twin soundtrack I recomend either arrow or akrapovic, if you are adding a full system then you need to add a race air filter k&n or BMC are good also a dynojet kit is ideal.

I reckon, never ask "What can I change", ask yourself "What don't I like", otherwise you'll end up painting it green or bolting bits of other bikes to it, or some other ****ing stupid thing
