Diablo. Can you tell us what small things you have done, and what you have gained. Im curious cause I would like to do some small mods to my xbsx without going to the full race kit. (not looking for major HP increase)

My bike was built by Hal's. The reason you have a good shop build your motor is not for the big stuff.

It's easy to get the cases bored and major assembly done.

It's the small stuff that a veteran builder does that makes it worth while.

Chamfering oil ports, relieving some sharp edges, etc.

Before Direct link made 100 hp Buells common-place, my bike was considered a pretty hot bike.

Here is a link to a couple of dyno runs and the build sheet.

Those numbers were with a stock 03 xb9 airbox cover (no nipple), and crankcase vents in the air box.

I'm certain that with a free flowing exhaust, like the micron or Drummer ss and some hotter cams there is a lot more power
in this motor. I think there should be another 10 reliable hp in this motor, maybe more.

Every bit helps.


Do enough little things to your bike and you just get a BIGGER silly grin on your face!
