The first thing I did was shorten the side-stand by about 5mm (the angle of the tilt was doubled to 11 degrees, because otherwise the motorcycle has a tendency to falling to the side). And I took out the catalytic converter which was already pretty clogged. Now I replaced the steering bearings that were need replacing, to reinforced roller bearings. I would have been happy for a higher windshield, + 20cm? but unfortunately I did not find such an upgrade for our model.
How many miles has on your odometer?
i just don’t know how much more power is worth the $400 for the commander but will most likely get it and find out and if you see me selling one on here it’s didn’t do too much lmfaoA buddy of mine has a KTM RC390 and did a few mods like removing the catalyst from the stock pipe.
He installed a Power Commander with a map from a company that tunes the RC390 engines, and says it has made a significant difference.
Not sure if the CBR would respond the same way. It depends somewhat on just how good or bad the original mapping is and how good of a tuned map you can get.
We messed around with the PC and a few different maps for my son's R6 at one point, and it's a bit of trial and error getting a good one without doing actual dyno tuning.
Which is why the r1 I got gets the majority of my love lmfaoSee if you can find articles by Ari Henning, formerly of Motorcyclist Magazine. He raced a CBR250R for a while, and I believe he modded it along the way. Eventually he came to the conclusion that it was holding him back no matter what he did - which is the truth.
It's a decent cycle, but was not designed as a sport or race bike.
There's only so much you can do.
