Thanks Pete. For sure I'll keep you updated.I do have other rides but the summer is
there to ride. The winter is for fiddling to retain sanity, you know what I mean? I do
see potential in improving the overall performance of this bike. I don't want or plan
to make it more sporty,or lighter. I like the touring aspect of the bike & want to
keep it that way. I think 2 mufflers will only add to the touring appeal. More torque
& power throughout the power band would also add to the touring appeal of the bike.
There will be benefits to the sporting side of this bike as well. But I would rather
consider them side effects of the mods. My engine goals will focus on 2 up, long
distance riding rather than race spec precision. I am taking care of the suspension
with a set of OHLINS dampers. They will be be in soon. It's already a hot rod. Nothing
much to do in that category.Thanks for your comments. Peter Piazza
