You can spend tens of thousands of dollars on engine mods that you will never recover when you trade. No matter what you do there will always be a faster bike. He-- they are making metric bikes with 200 hp stock now.

Change the cams and port and polish the heads. That is what I did to mine with the SERT and I have just over 100HP and it runs like a stuck pig.

I dont have that problem. And thats the way I like it. But the look I see on their face in my rearview is priceless If it could be done without being so obvious I might have given it a try. As it stands, my bike just looks like a RK with a stage 1 done on it. Factory heads, cylinders and throttlebody.

Only pulled 109/109 SAE on the dyno

But it hits 100ftlbs at 2500rpm and doesnt drop till 5800. Its a fun ride, and suprises a lot of people. Especially the Screaming Seagull crowd
