Start with suspension, replace the original with ohlins and get it set up etc and see what's left after that, nice set of lighweight wheels wouldn't go a miss too
Most modern bikes have more performance than we can use so before looking at improving engine output, as already suggested, I'd look at making the bike handle so you can use the power you have. Improving suspension either by upgrading and/or setup and reducing unsprung weight will see the bike improve measureably. Something as simple as a good service can improve the performance of your current forks and shock without a huge outlay, springs for your weight and a professional set up is still a lot less than a grand. Lightweight wheels are always a good up grade but don't forget your brakes. Having the confidence to brake later and harder is where you can gain a lot of time. Andy
Well ET now you ask I was thinking about my track bike, my suspension is all sorted then thought what would everyone else do?
If suspension sotred, I'd say wheels (for a grand used) and spend the rest on track tuition. Not CSS but Crafar or spike edwards
I don't really wanna write much on here ATM with this but you can PM me if you like, all I'm saying is if i was spending on training I'd bung a few more quid on top and go with Crafar
Carbon BST wheels, however I've chased up HPS three-times & if they can't be arsed as the uk supplier to at least send a message. Give me feed back that Blackstonetek don't see a current viable need to produce a set for the multi-strada enduro (even though I know they do 19 & 17 rims)...what can I do.
I gotta say I've never been over the moon with them either unfortunately and I've needed to deal with for a while now
Just decided to do another bikeHPS message about Giles not getting back to me,...one of the big bosses who's constantly on holiday & never returns calls. It's actually the last modification I want/wanted to do too my bike & I'm totally done with it. ps: Fuck it, just contacted BST direct in joburg. Let's see how things progress on both fronts.
Not being funny but would HPK discs and a full termi be a good use that money? I doubt there'd be enough left for the rest of the stuff in your list?
