Default Performance mods done

Just got my bike back after having CR575 cams and new bearings installed along with the heads ported and polished and the SE clutch spring put in. I just went with the DirectLink tuner, I don't see myself going in and tweaking the numbers myself. The bike went from 74/90 hp/tq to 95/105. I imagine my V&H short shot pipes cost me a little power, but I love the look and the sacrifice is worth it.

The bike has been completely transformed not only in it's performance but the way it sounds. I am very happy with the way it came out. And after all of that I can't find where they put a scratch on it anywhere. I was worried about that. The only thing they did I don't care for is put a chrome oil filter on it, but that's an easy fix next oil change.

Finally got it lowered as well so now I have only a few more things on my list to do to it. First off is a new seat and then a new shift rod and maybe a speedo/tach combo. Oh, and possibly some black lower fork sliders.

After that I don't know...I'll probably just start a new list.

You upped the power while reducing cornering clearance?

That's not for me (unless it was a dedicated drag strip bike), but to each his own.

Want to get the new seat and detail it first, but I'm working on it!

Just lowered the back, don't think I'm sacrificing much. I'm happy with it.
