Not even then will it be an "SBK".
i said etc. so that means all the other racing mods out there.

why won't it still qualify?

You see SBK's in motogp... not on the street.

I'm only going to say once that installing that TDK is a stupid stupid idea. You've admitted repeatedly you don't use your bike anywhere near it's full potential, so you're going to increase it's potential? That makes sense!

what!?

i already said im not yet ready for the PCIII and exhaust upgrade.

EDIT: by TDK do you mean the TRE?

well yeah, i'll gain more power at the lower end but im not really gaining hp since it'll be the same as before once i hit 5th gear.

besides, if something is mentally challenged in your bike wouldn't you like to get rid of it?

Sorry. SBK (superbike) is a class into itself for "street" based motorcycles. MOTOGP is for prototype racing machines with no relation to street bikes.

Verm, the superbikes have way more mods than you might ever understand or could afford. They are not just bolt on some aftermarket stuff and you are there.

Perhaps that was your bike's theory when it spat you off into that guard rail.
Just a thought.
