Newby wants help with speed

**Supertramp** · 25th March 2007, 17:14

hey guys n girls and men and women. I'm geting sick of my bike and the pitifull power she puts out

and my mates are begining to think their cars might be able to drag

me and i don't want them thinking this. I already have a rep for being crazy on my bike but i wana back it up

. Could i get some help? in the form of mods i can do to get power and speed outa my baby?

An R6 should be able to see off most cars. The help you need is to learn not to be crazy and then get a bigger bike if you still feel the need. In the meantime, try a few trackdays

Oh, and welcome!

Do a couple of track days and see if you still think you are fast.
Serious question here, what makes you call the R6 "pitiful power?" And what are you trying to race against that might have a chance of coming close to it?
Welcome to KB by the way.

I think I know what your problem might be.

See if you can find a spud that is about the same diameter as your exhaust. Make sure it is a tight fit and then tap it home.

That should protect you from your mates, the road, mad car drivers .... and yourself.

What you need is Geen-o-Kleen. Evolution you can see. In the big economy size bottle. Add it to your petrol, you'll get where you're going in half the time.

Somehow, I'm not sure that is the problem...

**CM2005** · 25th March 2007, 19:24

turbo your bike. oh wait, learn to ride an R6 first. don't drink and ride, and you're fucking lucky that your mates missus could get back on. riding with someone on the back is asking to bin it.
