Man, I suddenly want a new exhaust!

Probably quite costly replacing the whole system though... and I like the quiet stock one.

Ignition load as in needed to run the engine, right?

That's what I was referring to, and I consider 2A to be surprisingly little.

2A seems quite low. That would mean an 8A.h battery could run it for close to 4 hours?

I'm not experimental enough to know, but you might just get slightly more power.

Yeah, that's a good start, but it's more aimed at the things that might drop out in front of your back wheel and be bounced up towards your airbox.

If you're not actively countersteering more and have grip available, it should bring the bike upright. If you don't have grip available you'll low-side.
