Ive never drilled rivets out or anything so im hesitant to even try that on a good exhaust. I may ask around town and see if anyone has any experience doing so and try to get some guidance in person. And as far as LED's go, I wired some up a few days after I bought the bike. Cant ever have too many in my opinion!

 

By gearing you mean sprockets or what? I think mine has a 43 tooth rear sprocket right now. Ive been told for more torque to switch to a 45 or 46 tooth. Any input?

 

I agree with you on the LEDs! As far as sprockets go, I kno nothing bout them yet lol

 

obviously changing your sprockets wont increase actual torque but yeah getting a rear sprocket with more teeth and/or getting a front sprocket with less teeth will increase acceleration, at the cost of lowering your top speed, which really shouldnt be an issue on the street ever. Most people do a -1/+2 sprocket setup (1 less up front 2 more in the rear). Ive always kept my stock gearing so i cant vouch for the acceleration difference but i assume its fairly significant since its so popular. I think it reduces your top end by about 5-10mph. And youll also be cruising at a higher rpm on the highway becaue of that too. Or at any speed for that matter.

 

-1 front = +3 rear

If you -1 front and +2 rear = +5 rear

I out my bike was running 520DID +3 Rear...when I first purchase it. Now I'm so used to it, don't think I'll got back stock....1st 2nd 3rd...I rarely need to surpass 9000 to hit 100-120mph

 

Thanks for the ino. I know this is a bit off topic but Im interested now..So if I went -1 in front and +2 in rear would I need to get a new chain? And any recommendation on where to get a good sprocket at a good price? lol

 

Cool Im def looking to change the sprockets. I dont mind losing top end bc It will only get me in trouble lol. Any recommendations on where to get sprockets at a good price. And will I need a new chain?

 

no i dont think you can use the stock chain if you do the -1/+2 however this is a popular conversion so companies like RK just sell the complete kit as a "quick accel kit". Just search for rk quick acceleration kit and youll find tons of places selling it. here it is on motorcycle superstore for $220.

Cool sounds good. So is it true it messes with you speedometer and mileage. In other words it says im doing 70 but im doing 60? or vice versa?

 

yeah your speedo will be off and youll rack up way more mileage than you really are. if you buy a speedohealer or similar device itll fix those issues. So its just another $100 youll have to spend unfortunately if you dont want to deal with that....and no one really does.
