    porting and polishing
    throttle body enlargement
    and more
    The easier way to touch 170 is to buy 2 ACME rockets and shove it in the rear of your bike.. Instant acceleration.
    Comments apart, sorry to break your bubble bro. 170 - In dreams. If CBX is able to modify your bike to Touch 170 true speed, i will give my R15 for free.
    BTW, i am ready to pick your MRF Zaps if you go for a biggie tyre.

      is there any improvement in handleling
      If you really doubt the performance of those skinny looking Zappers, then do accompany us to track once. You will be astounded by its capability.

                      IMHO, Simple fonts, reflective white background looks best. Girls, designs, unwanted text, etc gives a very gaudy feel. Number plate should look Elegant. My opinion only. But yes as others also mentioned, do chuck the girl thing from the number plate, they look best as pillion only.

                          ^^ nope, because you cant really re-jet the injector, maybe, im not sure, the gurus on the R15 would be better suited to answer that. It will make your bike run lean at the top end. I tried a oil type stock insert filter, the low end really improves from 2-7k rpm, but beyond that the bike looses power, so going beyond 125 becomes not possible.

                            ^^K&N Airfilter/performance air filter on R15 has been discussed to death here on Xbhp, but everyone is looking for instant answers, nobody wanna take pain of doing a search. Let it be.

                            Just FYI, R15 uses a cheap open loop fi system so plonking a performance filter wont do anything at all to the performance.

                            What is a cheap open loop fi system? Just go and search for it.
