I am sure that pods will produce a lot more power. But once again they are going to be a whole lot more expensive, and the jetting will take a little longer to get right. Not to mention I'm sure you're getting slightly worse mileage with a bike that rich, something that I still enjoy about my stock ninjette
Also, more out of curiosity than anything, because i never saw a straight answer, do you have to worry about water with pods? sorry if it's a noob question, but I don't know the background behind this...
