I did a very similar set of mods and paid to have it mapped on a dyno.
One last mod that will give the bike some get up and go is to drop a tooth on the front sprocket.

That's what I was thinking too. HondaJohn's thread ended before he ever reported the results of a real custom mapped dyno with his setup, so I just don't know how much gain over his reported 97rwhp i should expect from the custom map. 1 hp? 2? does it matter? this is what keeps me up at night.
as for the front sprocket, i had designs on exactly that change, I was just looking for somebody to tell me some specifics. Drop one tooth eh? i'll say, my real goal is to get maximum performance between 0 and 90, since that's where i always live. it would be a rare day indeed if this bike ever accelerated beyond 90mph, so i'm not too concerned with performance outside that range. the sprocket change seems ideal for those conditions.

It really made the pick up from low revs and small throttle opening work better. I fitted it post Dyno time and a Map. I just kept the map that was worked out on the dyno.
Losing weight is also a good idea and will liven the bike up similarly.
the weight pass is already beginning. my new muffler (alerady installed) is only 1.8 kg and the titanium headers are only 2kg. after that i have massive plans to drop weight, but i won't be able to afford it until next year. it's going to be expensive.
I'm also losing weight myself. approximately 40lbs is going to come off in total. so 40-50 lbs off the bike, and 40-50 lbs off me....it's going to feel like a GSXR.
