Yes, my son bought a corked-up version - the so-called disappointment....
The demo he tested beforehand was an un-corked one - US ECU an intake... standard pipe - that does not work too well - rather tempramental I would say...
The std one is smoother on the throttle, but would still break the rear tyre loose up to 5th gear easily!!
I know at some stage in future he will want to uncork it, but much more research is neccesary to find the optimum solution - maybe power commander, or Vortex and definelately a pipe!!!
Std pipe sounds horrible!!!
Bike now on 220 odd km, 23km/l - still riding it in...
Suspension in a different league than most road legal bikes!!!
