    what are the co's??????

    E bay sell power mods, which is a resistor you add to the fuel system electrics that increases the air/fuel ratio thus giving more HP. Personally I dont think it's worth it and if its wrong you could burn valves/pistons. Use a power commander and dyno, it's much safer but more expensive!!!

    Adjusting rear shock preload

    When your braking the weight of the bike moves forward, so you need to move your weight back, The rear wheel goes light as the cof g moves forward you counter this by moving back in the seat/sitting up. Lean forward when accelerating to keep the front down.
