Hi,
up to now, I made about 15.000 km with K&N and DJ. I cannot state, that
this
modification led to a lower fuel consumption. I didnīt measure, but Iīm
quite
sure, that power increased aprox. 5 HP.
The original Muffler "died" after 8000 km with K&N and DJ, I suggest bec
ause of
increased "pressure". Since then, I use a "Shark" Muffler, which additio
naly
increased torque and "willigness" of the engine. BTW, the sound is *much
*
better...
Conclusion: The modification ist not cheap and you should change the muf
fler
also in order to gain some power. Itīs more than nothing, but donīt expe
ct
wonders. To impressively improve the power, you should look at Africa Qu
eens
Tuning Kits. But this is *realy* expensive.
Other enhancements are more speed-efective: WP Springs and Damper (or Oe
hlins,
pls. donīt start another thread on this subject), with which you are muc
h
better on the road (on off...) and a Corbin Saddle for superior seat com
fort
and "feeling" for the bike.
