probably a dumb question
I know that this is probably a dumb question. But I wanted to know.
Can you put on a full exhaust system re jet the carbs and put in a k&n air filter. Before the bike is fully broken in? Or will it hurt the break in and engine to do that? Thanks guys. |

You can do that now and it won't hurt the motor. There are so many different schools of thought on the break-in procedure. I did it on mine and it runs perfect. In fact, I think it may even help with the break-in.

I don't think it would hurt the motor, probably your wallet.
I'm of the mind set that you ride a bike until you start getting a bit bored, then you start the mods. It's like getting a whole new bike for (relativly) not much money. |

I would do that. But I can't stand the stock exhaust.
