Default My new CBR

Greetings,

I bought a 1000rr this week! My last new bike was a 02-954rr. Can anyone tell me what the easiest performance mods i can do. I rember my 954 had a Butterfly thingy in the exhaust, and a "Flapper" thingy in the air box. However, when i removed both of thoses, (with a yoshi full system, and K&N filter, i lost alot of low-end stuff. I remember really being disapointed with that. Will i have the same problems with my new bike?

Also, as this is my first post, and i am new to this site: any general tips would just be alsome guys! thanks a bunch,

SirJAG


EDIT: oh and one more thing? how easy is it to do wheelies on this bike? not clutching mind you, just straight power-ones? and which gears can i do them in? (not stand up's either, i could do thoses in 4th on my 954. i wanna know if i can powere them up in 1st,2nd,3rd?

thanks again

power wheelies? just roll the throttle (not wide open) but give it a good twist... you'll feel it come up

I love my 06 1000. It handles so sweet. It's like can feel the Pirelli Corsa tires talking to me when the roads are nice and warm. I am at the point when I ride aggressive I'm not sitting on the seat but standing on the pegs distributing my weight on the bike making it do what I want. Anyone please feel free to respond if you know what I'm talking about. I hope I'm using the right riding techniques. I will find out this Monday and Tuesday when I do my first track days.
