Default Power X wing

I've been reading about the boyesen x wing and decided for $100 what the hell ill give it a try, and I tell you what my bike feels more responsive and more power. I installed it on Saturday and its been hot and humid here in New York and the bike runs great, not saying it didn't before but I am satisfied . Just what I think!

Oh ok. I looked it up and it looks like one of those tornado things that was sold for car/truck intakes. I tried on of those and it never did anything. Might be more noticeable on a bike due to a smaller engine, I don't though.

also check out the electric super chargers on ebay .. they even come with a extra HP guarantee,, But be warned after fitting one , you will have trouble keeping your front wheel on the ground..

NRHS did some dyno testing of these. They found it made zero extra power and, in fact, it lost a bit at some revs.

I am glad your satisfied with your $100 purchase but most will say you wasted your money. An oil change and new air cleaner would have netted you more gain for the same money.
