    @TJ it definitely needs a little more power and I might end up changing the gearing it screams at 70 mph on the highway do you think it would shorten the life of the clutch I remember in one of your videos you said you'd have to work the clutch a little more to get it going or would you just send it like it is

    @Jesse cuttign weight, opening the exhaust, and intake and tuning properly should have you cruising at 90-100 mph no problem. if you go DOWN in teeth on the rear sprocket, you will reduce highway rpms. 

    LOWER HIGHWAY RPMS, means the bike will feel less aggressive when you hit the throttle in higher gear and you will need to downshift much sooner when passing. you may need to take a link out of your chain as well if you go down a few teeth and chain tension will need to be checked

    Remember small changs will make a big difference!  stock tooth count is 44, just dropping to a 42 tooth will make quite a difference.
