How far can a 790 be pushed? Curious about opinions on how much hp and torque can be squeezed out of these fine motors without making the jump to a 904 or beyond, or without getting into internal engine stuff. Although not disappointed with the stock output, it seems like from 'day 1' of ownership I've been spending a lot of time and $$ trying to reach the apex of what can be done. Have not dyno'd but may do so this year. My current setup so far is below. Not sure what else can be done to tweak performance, and at this point I'm way happy with the way my bike propels my 250#'s down the road. But have I gotten all there is to get?? The quest continues…
- open pod filters, airbox removed
- specialty spares short slash cuts
- 150 mains
- 42 pilots
- 1 shim
- drilled slides
- billet aluminum intake manifolds
- lots of chrome (no performance boost, but dang it looks good!!)
