| Simple Modifications? Want to tweak my 916 1. Gearing. The bike is overgeared, I would like to change the sprockets to increase the acceleration and get some more useable power (rather than having to click down at 70mph at 4,000rpm for an overtake) What size front and rear spockets? Some have said one down at front two up at rear? And which chain? 2. Tyres. I have Metzeler MEZ3's on it and find them as I do on my R1 very scary. I was thinking of some Diablos? 3. Air box? Is it it worth it in performance terms, purchasing a set of enlarged carbon fibre air tubes. 4. Brake pads. I have bled the front brake, but still find the braking lethargic, I guess the pads are OEM and they seem to lack bite to me. Anyone have any reccommendations to increase the initial bite and stopping power? Cheers   |
