I’m not keen on modifying bikes.
In my experience, changing things usually means a decrease in reliability.
And the number of bikes I see where the owner’s fitted kilos and kilos of extra junk! Seriously. Some of these people are hauling around so much crud I wonder they can get anything from their bike at all.
“Stock is the go,” I spruik to anyone who’ll listen. “If you need more horse-power or comfort, buy a bigger bike.There’s plenty available.”
