Thanks for the info Caddmann, it's nice to hear things right from the source
. My understanding is that Kawi ships bikes out that are running on the "lean" side. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm understanding lean to be more air than fuel. If this is the case, wouldn't getting more air in the mix with this mod make it even "leaner" (if that's a word, lol)? I realize that the stock pipes will be the bottleneck, but there's nothing I can really do about that now. I'd just like to be able to squeeze out as much as I can without getting in trouble with the PD. (Technically, as long as my stock pipes are on and not drilled out, I'm OK, so I may gut the goat belly as a stealth way to improve flow...
) I know a lot of people have mentioned not to bother with any air/FI mods without aftermarket pipes, and I understand why. I'm not going for the additional horsepower, etc, I just want to make it run like it's supposed to (and cooler) if possible.
Thanks again for the info, if I end up making a custom plate I'll make sure to post pics for everyone.
