Subject: Why tune an @???
Hi guys,
this e-mail is just a short answer to Joerg's question. I just states my
PERSONAL OPINION.
First of all, I have to agree to Joerg concerning one thing: If you have
more power, you get used to it very fast and after some days don't recognize
it any more. This was true in my case - I modified my bike the way Raymond
did and it brought some hp, but now, I can't say that I feel the more-power.
You simply get used to it.
But, I think that nearly everybody would like to have some more hp on the
street. And sometimes, you really need them. Think 'bout driving with your
girlfriend. There you'd sometimes need some more power.
And as I think, the most of us are driving their @ on the street and not
offroad; for the case of offroad, I can't state my opinion because I don't
have the experience, but for onroad, I sometimes miss some hp's on my @.
But if you have to spend nearly 4.500 DM for e.g. getting 70 hp and an
engine that maybe explodes after some thousand km's, the game is over for
me. For this extra price plus the price for my @ I can buy a R1100GS, that
has even more hp's, an engine that will run more than 50.000 km, etc.
greetings,
Achim Muehlberger
