Hiya. as you can see from the title i need a bit of help tuning?
i was looking into a stage 1 kit for my 1275. however i looked into it and it only gives a MAX of 10% or it might not even get that out of it?

so does anyone no any over ways of gettin more out the the performance or buys to improve it?

cheers sam :)

you could look at replacing the head, or getting your head worked, with bigger valves, smoother/bigger ports, this will help it breath better (get more fuel/air in, and get the exhaust gasses out quicker) and replace the cam, this can make the valves open longer, again to get more fuel/air in. So head and cam would make a good start! :) hth

You really need a stage 1 kit first, 10% is good anyway!

fitting a stg1 kit or replacing a head isnt an hard job, but porting and flowing a head needs a bit of experience and knowledge.
If u're a novice, u'd better fit the kit under the supervision of someone mini experienced.
