I have an X1 with the race ecm and a wileyco exhaust, will a different air cleaner help the power any? I was thinking of the buell race type.

What, other than engine work, is there left to do?

then, for the winter. what engine work should be done first?

Thanks

none if you don't need it! Those things run fine if you just take care of them. but I did put cams, carb, ported, new exhaust, etc... on mine, depends on what you want... sometimes I wish I hadn't when I hear a nice quiet buell roll by, just a purring along, mine is a little more/too beligerant.

ah yes, the Quiet. I do love quiet too. but quiet and fast seem mutually exclusive : (

and my wrist wants fast more than my ear wants quiet. my wrist really wants a track bike.

Just put a K+N in your air box.
I have them in stock

Dan- Use the K&N filter and take a dremmel cutting tool to all of the plastic inside of your airbox and "gut" it. Dramatic difference!

my wrist wants fast more than my ear wants quiet.

Mods for the fast and wrist.

Ear plugs for the quiet and ears.
