no doubt! well if your looking for info on mods im sure youll find something cuz everyone here has experiance with some mods, but for starters, since its free anyways, id take out your silencer on the pipe, take off the airbox lid (maybe buy a K&N filter) and cut your pink wire, this will add considerable hp and wake the bike up ALOT.
