Default How do I make this CBR faster??

Can anyone recommend me some decent mods to make the bike quicker? I find it needs a bit of a kick after my ZZR1100. I have about £300 to spend on mods that will not effect the reliability.... thanks

Go down a tooth in the front sprocket which will get you off the line faster.

My brother went -2 in front and it was quite an awakener for that bike. A diet is a good place to start if you can find something to get rid of on it.
A full exhaust I suppose, but.........that requires jetting obviously.

Twist the throttle more toward you.

Sorry, just couldn't resist that.

I got mine from Spiegler Performance Parts

I'm not sure how to order from their site so I just called them up, took about a week to get it.

Ride like the devilJust a joke, Changing the sprocket is the bes way to get better performance!!! Take it far a dyno and get them to take some of the restriction out that works too!!
