Default Performance

I want to increase the performance of my 2006 vulcan 1500. Do anyone know what I can do to help the performance without extream work? I am considering piping it and changing the air cleaner.

I have not played with that ride yet, but it is like most engines and rides out there. You need to mess with the flows on both ends normally to get a standard. Why mess with the pipe end if you cannot get the fuel end metered correctly to meet the change?

I found that if you want a change, then you had better get both ends done and tuned together as a unit. That way your dollar is working for what you want and not a nickel and dime story with unhappy feelings towards your ride.
