What that says to me is that the OEM muffler was pretty bad. I guess you could say that manufacturer had different goals, but what else is the goal of a donorcycle?

). However, for a number of reasons, including not wanting to upset GSXR1100 owners who paid much more for their bikes, Suzuki put a hugely restrictive motor on the Bandit and shrank the carbs. The objective of this was basically to restrict high end performance. Replacing the pipe gives you about 15 extra horses (up from 100 to 115) and rejetting the carbs and opening up the inlet tract into the air filter gives you another 10.

2kTurkey,

As far as I can see, my next step in terms of performance improvement is putting wet weather track tyres on the car (Bridgestones or Dunlops).

Am I reading you correct .... are you saying that you're going to get wet semi-race rubber for the S2000 when you replace the tyres? If so, are you planning to drive on the street with those tyres as well? alst of all, how many Kms do you expect to get from them?
