I'm not one to "Pop" wheelies. not with the clutch and not that bouncy b.s. either. but to me there is nothing like a bike that will simply lift it's own front wheel from torque alone! Will the CB do that? It wouldn't. Well, I recently did the drill the last baffle mod just looking for some deep tone. It sounds good. then I got to looking at the air filter and the design of it baffles me. It has two "tubes" that go, well, nowhere. One has an opening about the size of a half dollar and the other a quarter. Why? They are both always open. Anyway, there is a Plug? thing that seems to have no use too. so i took it out, providing another quarter size hole for air intake. I want to hear it suck air, so I roll out in first gear and whack open the throttle. Holy @#$%^& !!! the front wheel just took off! It freaked me out and I chopped the throttle and it slammed back down. Poor forks! But I did it again and let it just run it's course and it came up about a foot or so and then gently touched back down. Wow! Now that's torque! I'm in love with this bike all over again! And haven't spent a penny on after market parts. Now, to those of you thinking about spending $90 on the tsr air funnel thing... unless you are going to leave the side cover off so you can see that pretty gold thing... the stock cover is made in two pieces, so just pry them apart and walla! you have the same mechanical effect for free.
