I agree with Dave...... spend on handling rather that £££on engine mods. You can only go so fast on UK roads! If you are good enough, and can really muscle you bike through the twistys you can leave the big/heavy/ unwieldy GSX Rs, Blades ect in your dust. I love doing this on a certain stretch or road near to me. Of course they come blatting past at 100+mph, but I have a saying " any Turkey can smoke" meaning that my youngest lad could twist the throttle and go as fast as the bike will let him in a straight line. On many occasions when I have pulled up for a rest, other bikers come and ask me "Is that a Yamaha?" ( I have a Fortuna rep) they are rather suprised when I inform them that it is a 250 Honda not a 750 Yam. These blokes on 1000cc bikes do not know anything about two strokes. So go for the handling mods! here endeth the lesson.
