Rode with a little pack of sport bikes yesterday. An Aprilla 750, and a variety of Yamahas, R6, a couple of bigger liter bike versions and a Honda VFR 800. Lots of fun and the stock Scram held it's own fine on the twistys and on the back roads.
When we got out on the highway heading home though - the pace quickened and we passed some slower traffic. Several times. Those sport-bike critters have sure got it all over the twin for passing power... "Vwoop, gone."
So - will a set of pipes (I'm thinking TOR's), a better filter and a good tune help with the 50 - 80 mph acceleration? Okay, maybe to 90 for the occasional pass?
Or will the Triumph just growl louder and not accelerate any quicker?
Thanks, Guy
