I then put on a Stg2 filter and kev fuel mod and the acceleration was back to if not above standard 15:45 setup acceleration. I found the standard XTR hard to sit at an indicated 70mph with standard gearing but after the gear change and the stg 2 filter+kev mod found that i could now sit at a proper 80mph for a good hour before mainly wind blast got annoying.
But why not drop the speed and enjoy a different route?

I've just bought the Kev encyclopedia. I'll have a look at some power mods in a bit. I enjoy the twisties already (I live on the welsh border) and ride a lot on a local MX track. I want to be able to do some 500mile+ expeditions to Scotland/Ireland this year so want to get the touring setup nailed so I can get to those places to enjoy the twisties/offroad there!
