not being mechanically minded (i'm even having problems fitting hand guards yeah i'm that useless) i don't want to go down the road changing all settings etc.
i've seen some of the mods and would love to be able to do but i've more chance platting fog.
i'm after a bit more power low down, really hate the way it chokes up in 1st and 2nd.
someone suggested taking the cats out off exhaust but now found out thats a bit impractable.
any help be great
cheers nige
Nige if you are after some extra HP fit a stage 2 DNA filter, easy to fit. The XT is choked more from the inlet side, then the Exhaust side.
