So... you're looking for 'performance', eh?
Why not just buy a performance 'bike? Then leave the CB as the beautifully-running 'retro' bike it is, with no pretensions of 'performance' (120mph not fast enough?), and enjoy the stock way that it runs. Reliability allied to a nice torquey motor - why ruin that?
I don't get why loads of you guys buy THIS 'bike and then just want "more power", totally ruining the WAY this CB delivers the type of power it does.
TORQUE... not power is the name of this game.
Each to his own, I suppose.
Mind you, the bland looks of the CB is crying out for "something" to be done to liven it up! Four exhausts would do that, a la CB750..
