ahh well if you were looking for max power i have some velocity stacks for sale... def one of the lightest, best balanced bikes of its time. hope it meets your expectations.

ps: when you get a chance, pull your fairings and see if you got one of the autographed ones. baba-san used to sneak in the factory late at night and sign his masterpieces
