its not on the engine but taking up the rear to accompany any K&N should be a decent performance exhaust - if yer gonna put more air in, you need to get it it quick - saves stiffling the engine.

Change carb too - webber better than standard pieberg carb (think u can get one for 1.2)

The lower range engines are a little basic for any major power gains but if you drive one and performance air filter/zorst, you will notice the difference - I did/have! :D

More in depth u could get better cam, head etc........ (dunno about that stuff though! sorry) :roll:

not as classic a wizard!

I helped some guy at work with an enquiry and he said to me "ah thats wizard ade - cheers!"

Felt like I was back in the 70's!

Ah those were the days - hot summers, cold winters, jumpers for goal posts, white dog pooh and riding her raleigh boxer/grifter/chopper (not at the same time!)

only if you wear a tank top!

I had a boxer - one of them annoyong little bikes that when you pedalled backwards the brakes came on - went through tyres quicker than a cruise nite burnout competition!
:D

I had a big up Chopper until recently ...it went to live at the scrap yard ...
doing wheelies was wicked on them!
(I got loads scars on my elbows from falling off)
